Needed a couple days to get my mind together to recap this weekend....
I am still in shock of how many people came to The Imperial Court All Oklahoma, Inc. for Coronation this past weekend! We had 18 different courts attend, nearly 200 people! This is a milestone for our history and I know we are only going to build upon this moving forward. So I first want to Thank each and every single person who spent their money, PTO and time to come to Tulsa and celebrate with us. Thank you so very much!
To our Members, you are the blood of our organization, without you we'd be dead. You all worked your tails off and never complained once! I am beyond proud of all of you for stepping up and taking such great care of our guests!
To our board, Joey Scudder-Barfield Ian Williams Steven Dormont RazerWulf Stephens you folks did so much this year and I greatly appreciate every sacrifice and effort made. Thank you for being open to change and evolving the court together as we move forward into new adventures and ideas,
To our Dowagers Paul McClure and Jeff Tarwater thank you for taking care of Hospitality! While I didn't get to spend much time in there, our guests had plenty to keep them hydrated and fed.
Mike Murphy Jordan Murphy Cody Dixon thank you boys so much for always checking on me, making sure I had what I needed and was where I needed to be when it was time. It was such a blessing that all 3 of you joined this year. Cody Dixon, you made momma proud and I am so excited for this next reign to see you grow and blossom even more!
LaShay DiMarco you know what you did and you know how amazing you are. Thank you for everything you have done for me! love you gal
Jim Scudder-Barfield Best friend we did it and I didn't kill you! I call that a WIN! lol but in all seriousness, thank you for this year. We got to do some pretty amazing things, see some beautiful places and meet ALOT of wonderful people. I am so proud of what we accomplished and what we are passing on to the next reign. While I know neither of us are done with our work, I feel confident that to momentum that we have built upon is only going to get bigger and better!
Finally, to our newest monarchs, Triton Scudder Paige and Dayna E VanHauen Congratulations! I am so proud of you both and can not wait to see what you both make of this year! Know that I am right behind you, cheering you on and there for whatever you need.

Until next time,
