Hadley Bleazard- Miss Tri-Cities Teen with Miss Washington Hermona Girmay and Kylie Glendenning Miss Tri-Cities.

First to be named was Miss Tri-Cities Teen which went to Hadley Bleazard, a student in the Pasco School District, and the daughter of Kevin and Alayna Bleazard. When Bleazard’s name was called, you could hear cheers ring out from the audience. It appeared she had quite the cheering squad.

Miss Connell 2022 Kylie Glendenning was in total disbelief as her name was called on Saturday, July 20. Glendenning stepped forward, nearly flabbergasted, that she had just received the honor of being named Miss Tri-Cities 2025. 

Glendenning is the daughter of Matt and Christina (Tina) Glendenning of Mesa, and a 2023 alum of Connell High School.

Glendenning later told the Franklin County Graphic, “A quote that was really on my heart this weekend was the verse, ‘Not by power, nor by might, but by my Spirit, says the Lord of Hosts. - Zechariah 4:6.’...I’m excited to represent the Tri-Cities and combat trafficking to protect our youth and empower survivors to step into a life of freedom.” 

Glendenning initially competed in 2023, taking the runner up spot and grand total of $5,900 in scholarships. At that time she told us, “Through Miss Tri-Cities I’ve been able to earn scholarships to afford my masters degree in clinical mental health counseling to one day work with sex trafficked survivors. I’ve gotten the opportunity to partner with Mirror Ministries and fund-raised restorative care packages for sex-trafficked survivors.” 

Miss Tri-Cities strives to inspire and motivate the accomplishments and personal achievements of these young women to reach their educational goals and dreams. The organization's website shared, "Opportunities are provided for young women to expand a quest for knowledge and acquire skills to better equip them for future success."
