Senior Homecoming Court Spotlight… Bailey Dowling

St. Joseph-Ogden Senior Bailey Dowling is honored to be on the Homecoming Court.

“It’s pretty cool being on homecoming court knowing that some of my classmates voted for me,” she said.

Dowling said she enjoys going to the Homecoming dance.

“My favorite part about Homecoming is being able to go out with friends and spend the night together dancing away,” she said.

Dowling said the best part of her senior year is the friendships she has formed.

“The best part about senior year is hanging out with friends in our class because I feel that we have never been as close as we are now,” she said.

She also likes creating keepsakes when it comes to homecoming.

“My favorite part about past homecomings is all the pictures my friends and I take,” she said.

Dowling said she is looking forward to the queen crowning on Saturday night.

“It would be pretty awesome to be named queen because it would be an honor knowing my classmates had voted for me,” she said.
