Congratulations
Mrs. New Hampshire United States 2009
Irene Raissis Alton!

How can I say it any other way - I'm SOOOOO excited!! Thank you, Thank you! I feel so honored and humbled to have this amazing opportunity to represent the incredible state of New Hampshire, do good work and have the opportunity to compete for the title of Mrs. United States 2009! Directors, Erica Baker and Cathleen Campbell held a beautiful pageant weekend, the state preliminaries to Mrs. United States 2009. Kudos to them for a job well done! It was a pleasure meeting all the women competing for the various state titles. We had New York, Maine, Massachusetts, Connecticut and of course, New Hampshire all in one New England Pageant Event! There were queens everywhere with alot of excitement and incredible accomplishments that they all came with to compete! Congratulations to all the new state Title holders - Best of luck at Nationals in July. We'll all be competing for the incredible title of Mrs. United States 2009!
