Hi! I am fourteen year old Savannah Bradford, your 2010 Miss Junior National Teenager. I am so excited and blessed to represent such a fine pageant. Hearing my name called as the winner is a dream of a lifetime come true. I love being a positive role model for girls through out the USA. I work with the Boys and Girls club, Special Olympics and Love Letters Cares where I started my own chapter. I am a freshman in high school and a JV cheerleader. I have been twice awarded the President's Gold, Silver and Bronze medals for outstanding community service and being able to give back to the community is important to me.

Hi, I’m Melissa Hoffman! I am currently a freshman at Hofstra University with a double major in Public Relations and Mass Media Studies. As busy as that gets, I still make time to be involved in my University's Dance Team, University Yearbook, Rotaract, and the Student Government. For the past 11 years, I have been deeply involved in all forms of dance, an interest that I parlayed into philanthropy through my foundation, Dancing Divas, which teaches dance movement to children who use wheelchairs. My favorite color is purple and I love anything with strawberries! I am also CPR certified and a proud Blood Donor. I love being involved with this system because it allows me to reach out to young girls and motivate them to let their dreams take flight. ANTSO Girls Rock!
I am 14 years old from the small town of Sumner, GA. I am so excited to be the new Miss Jr. National Sweetheart! I have been involved in pageantry for six years.

I am involved in several different charity organizations and in the process of starting my own non-profit organization, Helping Hurting Hearts. I am also a varsity cheerleader, varsity soccer player and a scholar athlete on A Honor Roll. ANTSO is an amazing pageant system and I am ready for a great year! Click here to visit my blog.
As a seventh grade honor student with a desire to help others, I have received the Prudential Spirit Award and Kohl’s Award for my work with Micah’s Bike.

Wow, I cannot believe it! What a blessing it is to be crowned the second ever ANTSO National Miss! I am still in shock that I get to be a part of this wonderful pageant system as a national queen. Since my crowning, I have met the nicest and most helpful people including the great directors, photographers, staff, my sister state and national queens. I was proud to represent North Carolina and my school, The University of North Carolina Wilmington, where I study Criminology. I have a passion for working with children and I am excited to continue my work with the Boys and Girls Club of America, as well as Habitat for Humanity, and the Special Olympics. I am humbled by this experience and I look forward to the wonderful possibilities this year has in store! Click here to visit my blog.
