The Hawk Eye
Claire Tillotson felt like a fairy tale princess all three times she attended Burlington High School s prom.
The BHS 2016 graduate loved finding that special gown, getting glammed up and having fun. It s one of the times I felt the most gorgeous, so confident. I loved showing off my personal style, said Tillotson, the current Miss Okoboji, who has an eye for fashion and now enjoys dressing up for pageants.
She knows prom dresses can be expensive and oftentimes hang unworn in the closet after the big event. When I was shopping for prom dresses a few years ago, I spent a ton of money on something I wore once, she said. I saved up for months to be able to afford something absolutely stunning.

MARIETTA For more than 20 years, Marietta resident Carolyn Lee has volunteered at the Greater Marietta Community Food Pantry.
She still volunteers once a week, even though she turned 97 in December.
“She never misses,” said Sherry Hill, pantry director.
Modest and humble, Lee seems almost embarrassed to talk about herself.
But the people who work alongside her aren’t reluctant to speak about her.
“She’s an inspiration to everyone,” said volunteer Lona Williams. “You never hear a negative word from her.”
Zolciak-Biermann household!
Brielle Biermann tested positive for the illness that has affected millions, and now she’s opening up about her experience. The reality star is one of the many celebs who contracted the novel coronavirus, and we are interested to hear more about people’s firsthand experiences with it.
She has been isolating from her family, so hopefully, no one else in the
Don’t Be Tardy clan has gotten sick.

Brielle Biermann opened up about having COVID on her Instagram story.
“I’ve had COVID (still recovering but I’m doing good today!!) so today is the day I’ve worn makeup,” she wrote. “Still quarantining (in the salon LOL) but have Zoom meetings all day.”
