Bonners Ferry's Maya Roberts arrived in
Orlando, Florida, in November, with a
smile on her face and ready to take on
the world during the Miss Teen of
America Pageant. She did her hometown
proud! |

Bonners Ferry's own Miss Teen of Idaho, Maya
Roberts, traveled to Orlando, Florida, in
November to compete in the 2018 Miss Teen of
America Pageant, and against a strong field of
amazing young women, she brought home the title
of third runner up!
"Thank you to everyone who has sponsored,
donated, and supported Maya on her journey to
nationals," Maya's mother, Skylar Roberts,
wrote. "It takes a village! I am very proud of
Maya, I am sure each of you are as well! She did
a fantastic job representing Idaho and will
continue her work as Miss Teen of Idaho into
2018. I know good things are in her future!"
Maya was crowned Miss Teen of Idaho in July.
In Orlando November 18, Alana Castle, Miss Teen
of Pennsylvania, Canton, Pennsylvania, was
crowned Miss Teen of America, Miss Teen of
Tennessee Shelby Bellah, Murray, Kentucky, was
first runner up, Miss Teen of Minnesota Anna
Becker, Buffalo, Minnesota, was second runner up
and our own Miss Teen of Idaho Maya Roberts was
third runner up.
Maya, 17, and a senior at Bonners Ferry High
School, plans on university next fall to pursue
doctorate in psychology with minors in business
and childhood development.
She lives with my mother and younger brother,
Kadyn Dimmitt-Henslee, almost five, in Bonners
Ferry, and with her dad, Jeff Roberts, and
stepmom Sarah in Spokane.
"I would like to thank Bonners Ferry for
supporting me," a radiant Maya said. |
