I would like to extend my sincere gratitude for being chosen as this years Miss Concordia.
I am honoured to represent the Club that I cherish so deeply in my heart, especially for our big 150th year. For those of you who don’t know me, I am a 3rd generation member of the Concordia Club thanks to my Oma und Opa (Else und Nick Osbelt), and my Mutter und Vater (Nicole und Steve Richtaritsch). I grew up at the Club being a part of multiple groups such as the Kinder Choir, Campers, Outdoor and now Narrenzunft group.
Oktoberfest has always been a major part of my life. I am an Oktoberfest born baby! I have participated every year since birth whether I danced, volunteered, worked or celebrated the festivities with friends and family. Being Miss Concordia has always been a goal of mine since I can remember. I believe I can use my outgoing, positive personality to inspire the youth to join our club, and keep our German tradition alive.
I would like to thank our President Rob Kerr, my new Miss Mom Alexandria Thoene and the other board members for this opportunity. I’m excited to see what this year brings and I can’t wait for the endless memories!
Prost,
Stephanie Richtaritsch
