Jules’ favorite Kolacky Days Event or Activity is the Kolacky Pageant. She has been volunteering for the pageant every year since she was 4 years old, starting as a little onstage helper, then passed out programs, and then backstage. She has looked up to and admired all of the candidates and royalties throughout the years and being a volunteer of the pageant meant she got to witness first-hand all of the work so many people do to make an event, like the pageant, successful. Her favorite flavor of kolacky if she had to pick just ONE would have to be raspberry, but a few others would come in as a close second, like peach or cherry.
