Some words from the 2014 Illinois Princess Cover Girl Ellie Bennett:

I had the most amazing experience being a part of the NAM family. My favorite part of being Miss Illinois Princess Cover Girl was organizing my own 5K fun-run for St. Jude Children's Hospital-"Rockford Rockin' it for St. Jude," I helped a lot of sick kids with the money we raised. I am also collecting books that I will be donating to my charity of choice! It's been such a great experience for me and my family and I can't wait to crown the next Miss Illinois Princess Cover Girl!
