The event also recognized Kaitlyn Funk, who won the National Miss Sweetheart Pageant in Illinois.

I loved spending time with my sister queens and volunteering across the community, not just in Calhoun County but also in my hometown of Birmingham.”

Kaitlyn also shared her excitement about winning the national title: “I was able to represent Alabama at the National Sweetheart Pageant in Hobson, Illinois, and won the title of Miss National Sweetheart. The experience was incredible, and I’m excited to see what the future holds.”

Looking ahead, Kaitlyn will travel to crown California’s Volunteer Pageant Sweetheart and continue competing in Miss Alabama Volunteer local pageants.
