Guadalupe County names winner of Distinguished Young Women contest Cindy Aguirre-Herrera
(Seguin) -- Guadalupe County has named a new Distinguished Young Woman. Winning the 2024 title over the weekend was Reyna Gold, a junior at Canyon High School. The scholarship program was held Sunday at the Stephen and Mary Birch Texas Theatre. The program, better known in this area as Jr. Miss, is designed for well rounded high school juniors who compete for various scholarship opportunities. Gold, the daughter of Chad and Amanda Henk and Dustin Gold and Aimee Silguero, also walked away with both the Fitness and Talent Awards. In addition, Gold claimed this year’s Spirit Award named in memory of Steve Tschoepe, one of the program’s longtime coordinators who died unexpectedly this past February. All together, Gold received an $8,000 scholarship to attend Texas Lutheran University as well as $1,250 in cash scholarships. Gold says she has always admired the program and is grateful
to be a part of this ongoing tradition. “Since winning, I have had many thoughts and emotions. First, I am incredibly thankful for this title and the honor to represent Guadalupe County. I have watched this program be a vital part for juniors in our community and have looked up to every single person that has been part of the Junior Miss (DYW) family. Now, being able to be a part of this program is such a blessing and I am so grateful to have won,” said Gold. Gold, who competed alongside eight other area high school juniors, says the experience created memories for everyone. “The best experience I gained from this program was the people that I got to work with. I had the privilege to meet and grow with amazing girls from around the community and will hold lifelong friendships and memories with them. Guadalupe County also has the best behind the scenes team!
