Heidi Young is a goal-oriented, talented young woman on the go

Heidi Young of Milford hesitates when asked to describe herself, and after a few seconds she comes up with ''goal-oriented” and “talented” to capture her personality. After meeting her. one would agree with the accuracy of those descriptions but would also see that they fall a little short as far as detailing the smart, witty, thoughtful, friendly and interesting person that she is. Talented is probably one of the first words that comes to mind when talking about Heidi because of her many musical abilities. She has loved music ever since she can remember. Heidi recalls her.. mother buying records, and Heidi in turn “would sit for hours with the headphones on listening to the music. ”

Profile

As a small child. Heidi started taking organ lessons. She says she was “pushed too hard and too fast" thereby losing interest in the keyboard, but not in music. While vacationing in Gatlinburg, Tenn., Heidi's parents, Florence and Link Young, purchased a dulcimer for her. After acquiring a book on the folk instrument. Heidi taught herself how to play it. Although she does not perform with it. she does enjoy playing for friends and family and does so very well. She can sing, play the piano and the organ, she taught herself how to play the dulcimer — it would only make sense that these abilities would lead Heidi somewhere or to something, and it has. Heidi auditioned and was accepted at the highly competitive music school at Indiana University at Bloomington. A sophomore at IU. Heidi is working towards a double major in

very important. After an audition, Heidi was also chosen to be a member of the Singing Hoosiers, a choral group at IU. This group has traveled around the world and was recently uMfted to perform at Carnegie Hall. » Having been accepted as Is student at lU's music school, and chosen as a member of this show choir, are both hefty accomplishments for this 19-year-old. But one of her greatest accomplishments, which is bound to impress those who have taken piano lessons over the years, was passing the piano proficiency. This means, she will never have to take another piano lesson again. Heidi will be putting her talent to the test once again as a contestant in the Kosciusko County Scholarship Pageant on July'29 at Warsaw High School’s auditorium. This pageant is a preliminary step toward the “Miss America” title and is a non-profit program. She first heard about the pageant from friends at Wawasee High School and she entered for the first time in last year's pageant. She was named second runner-up at that contest. As “Miss Waubee Lake," Heidi won first runner-up honors at the “Queen of the Lakes” Pageant at North Webster in June. She remarks that this pageant was almost a rehearsal for the Kosciusko contest. With the Kosciusko pageant fast approaching, Heidi is busy practicing her walk and her talent (a vocal rendition of ‘‘Happy Days Are Here Again”) in between her summer school classes and other activities. Overall, she seems prepared. Heidi is very happy with the Kosciusko pageant, not only because of the scholarships involved, but also because it gives her a chance to do something she really loves — perform. This pageant bases 40 percent on talent, 30 percent on interview, 15 percent on evening gown, and 15 percent on swimsuit. The combined 70 percent for talent and the interview give the pageant added “legitimacy,” says Heidi. Like others who are involved in this particular contest. Heidi agrees that it is not just a “beauty contest.” In what remains of Heidi’s spare time, she says she loves to read and to spin wool into yarn. “My favorite book of all time is "Exodus" by Leon Uris,” she exclaims, "and I think everyone should read it.” She also likes to to read a lot of Christian fiction books. But for right now, Heidi is looking toward the Kosciusko contest. They will practice every night the week before the pageant, and on July 29, a new “Miss Kosciusko” will be selected.
