My name is Cailin Landri Leach and I am the 47th Annual Miss Zwolle Tamale Fiesta. It is truly a significant honor to have the opportunity to represent this title and fulfill all responsibilities that come with it. I am the nineteen year old daughter of Courtney Jones and Micheal Leach. My maternal grandparents are Dennis and Lisa Pilcher. My paternal grandparents are Harlan and Jan Leach . Being the oldest of three siblings has taught me a lot about family, faith, and self-respect. I have a younger sister Lexie who attends Zwolle Elementary school, a younger sister Aubree, and a younger brother Asa, who both at- tend Florien High school. My siblings mean the world to me, I am a very family oriented person.
In 2022, I graduated from Pleasant Hill High School. Not only with a high school diploma, but also an Associate’s Degree of General Studies, from Northwestern State University, through the dual-enrollment program. Currently, I am online student at Louisiana State University at Alexandria , pursuing a Bachelor’s Degree of Healthcare Administration. One day I plan to become a Director of Orthopedics. This became my career choice after I broke my ankle in high school and had what I consider to be one of the best orthopedic teams possible, to take care of me.
My hobbies include listening to music, studying genealogy, spending time with family, and spoiling my daschund Izzie-Belle. I would like to personally thank the Battle of Pleasant Hill for sponsoring me in the Zwolle Tamale Fiesta Pageant. Also, I would like to thank everyone who helped me prepare for the pageant. From all of the calls, text, comments, post, and every other inch of support given, you each overwhelmed my heart and made the process much less stressful. Thank you for helping me make my goal become a reality! I am beyond thrilled and grateful for this amazing opportunity to represent the fiesta. On the weekend of October 14th, I hope to see everyone at the festival grounds, there truly is fun for the whole family!
There’s no time to siesta, let’s fiesta!
Join me the second full weekend of October, to celebrate the rich Spanish and Indian Heritage in my home parish, at one of the spiciest festivals in our state. Proudly representing the 47th annual Zwolle Tamale Fiesta , I am Cailin Landri Leach. Reminding you that no tamale, is like a Zwolle Tamale. Mucho Gracias!
