"From travelling across the globe to Japan, building friendships for life and falling in love with my biggest fear of “public speaking”, it has been an incredible journey from start to finish. I had a lifetime’s worth of experiences and I am honored to be a role model for the young girls of my city. A big thank you to the Lady of the Lake society, my sponsor Gyro Club and all my supporters. I will forever cherish this experience." – Priyaali Kanti, Miss Kelowna Lady of the Lake 2019
