My name is Stacey Ferguson and I am representing the city of Elk Grove as Mrs. Elk Grove in the Mrs. California United States Pageant. I am supported by my two favorite men; my husband, Craig, and my son, Zachary. Without their love and support I would not have made it this far! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I love you all the way to God's office and back!!!







My platform, Childhood and Adult Obesity with an emphasis on exercise and nutrition, is a true concern and alarming role that is affecting our country. My goal is to make our youth and fellow adults more aware of nutritious food choices and the value of exercise. I have recently participated in a 1/2 marathon and am a current lifetime and active member of Weight Watcher's. I am actively giving workshops and speaking at various schools in the Elk Grove Unified School District to promote good nutrition and exercise. I am also volunteering at my local school teaching P.E., implementing the SPARK program. It gives me great pleasure to be teaching such a sound and reputable program that promotes physical activity for young students that is fun and effective.

Applebee's

After working in the morning at the Health Fair, my husband took me to one of my favorite restaurants, Applebee's, here in Elk Grove. What I love most about Applebee's is the fact they have Weight Watchers meals on their menu! These meals are delicious and provide you with all of the necessary information regarding calories and how many points for each entree. This is a huge plus for all of us who want to enjoy a lunch or dinner out, but want to stay within our lifestyle limits. So, go enjoy a meal out at Applebee's; guilt-free!!!

Cover the Kids





































Saturday, April 24 was Cover the Kids Day at Edward Harris Middle School. I was allowed to be a special guest and share my platform regarding the importance of good, sound nutrition and exercise. I was also able to MC their raffle and gave away many prices which were beneficial to supporting their program. Cover the Kids (CTK) is a program that pushes forward that ALL children have access to affordable, comprehensive health coverage. Parents were given the tools on how to be an active part in their child's health. They were supplied with the information on how to get health insurance for their child, where to go for help, and how to work with their child's doctor which will help to keep their child on the path to good health. To find out more about Cover the Kids go to http://www.coverthekids.com/. Special thanks to Kathy and General produce for supplying all of the yummy fruit!
