MISS KUMEYAAY
ROSE VASQUEZ
Congratulations to Rose Vasquez from the Iipay Nation of Santa Ysabel!
She was crowned Miss Kumeyaay 2010-2011 at the Viejas Tribal Gathering on Saturday, August 28, 2010. Emily Burgueno, also from the Iipay Nation of Santa Ysabel, was the previous Miss Kumeyaay and gave her crown and advice to Rose.
Rose was being raised in the foster care system and then was adopted by a Tribal Family on the San Pasqual Reservation. We respectfully thank the San Pasqual Tribe and the adopted family for raising Rose with our culture, customs and traditions.
This is an example of the law and spirit of the Indian Child Welfare Act. “Native people raising Native children”
Rose is planning on attending Cal State San Marcos in the Fall.
Miss Vasquez is honored to represent the 12 Tribes of the Kumeyaay Nation and she will make public appearances at parades, conferences, ceremonies, and educational events.
Respectfully Submitted,
Brandie Taylor
Vice-Chairwoman Iipay Nation of Santa Ysabel
