Tulip Queen Tricia Wisniewski says the past months spent with the Court have seen great friendships develop. She says most of the court members knew each other prior to the announcement last November, but all the time spent performing has brought them closer. She says it’s a big time commitment, adding there’s plenty of school work to catch up on with performances sometimes cutting into class time. Wisniewski says her favorite aspect of being Tulip Queen is meeting all the people when the the group travels and performs.
