Buffalo Jill of The Week Katie

This week, our Jill of The Week is the only 5th year vet on the squad. At the start of her Jills career, Katie was kind of on the quiet side to an extent but over the years she's been with the Jills, she's become a lot more confident and outspoken. But even as a rookie, she was showing her dedication to the squad even making an appearance at an Animal Attraction Tailgate event as the only Jill without a dog. Her confidence and dedication are big reasons why she's currently in her 3rd season as a co-captain, serving this past season on Omarlla's line dancing between Stephanie B and Michelle. But even as a co-captain, Katie still has her goofy side as well, whether it be by not having faith in someone she should at times or even thinking she got skipped as Jill of The Week here (Oh, Katie...here you are...not getting skipped still...lol). Like we could actually skip over Katie. But beyond all that, one of the things Katie loves most about serving with the Jills is the visits with the US Military. She was a part of the 8-girl group that went to Iraq in the spring of 2007 and even spent Thanksgiving of 2008 in the Balkans visiting with and entertaining the troops there.
