Madi Bramsen
Dear
Friends of Santa Ynez
Valley Youth Recreation,
I
am honored and excited to hold the title of Youth Rec Queen for the
Santa Ynez Valley this year. The Youth Recreation Organization provides
support for so many activates in the valley that I as well as multiple
family members, have taken part in. I am enthusiastic to be able to do
my part in giving back to the 2018 campaign!
My name is Madisen Bramsen and I am a senior at Santa Ynez Union Valley
High School. My parents, as well as multiple aunts, uncles and cousins,
attended there as well. Growing up my parents have given my sister Ella
and I the opportunity to participate in a diverse lifestyle by allowing
us to take part in many activities and hobbies, some of which made
possible by Youth Rec. I started dancing at a young age at the Los
Olivos Dance Gallery, embracing a love for ballet and other forms of
dance. I also played AYSO soccer for many years and was active in trap
shooting, rodeo and 4H. Though I have loved all these activities, I
discovered a passion for raising and showing pigs through 4H. At the
start of high school I began showing jackpot pigs across California
along with showing pigs at our county fair. I have experienced immense
success with this, including two grand champion titles, a supreme
champion banner, and multiple showmanship awards.
I am the oldest daughter of Lars and Rosey Bramsen, both born and
raised in the Santa Ynez Valley. My grandparents Poul and Karen Bramsen
came to the valley in 1953 from Denmark where they raised my dad Lars
and uncles; Steffen, Ben, Kim; each still calling the valley their
home. My uncle Steffen has three boys; Brian, Scott and Allan who
actively took part in pony baseball throughout their childhood and now
with their own children, look forward to participating in Youth Rec
sponsored events. My mom, Rosey was also born and raised in Santa Ynez
by her parents Eddie and Linda Gonzalez, along with my Uncle Ray. My
great grandparents Ray and Martha Gonzalez have lived in the valley
forever, my great grandpa being born and raised in Santa Ynez and
worked at Pea Soup Anderson's as a young man, then Los Olivos
Elementary School as a school bus driver, retired in the early 1990's.
My great grandma Martha, born and raised in Santa Barbara, has called
Santa Ynez her home since marrying my great grandpa. I am proud to come
from a strong family history from Santa Ynez Valley and pride myself on
calling the valley my home.
With a list of exciting events and auctions, I invite you to join my
family and I, as we help raise money to continue supporting the
wonderful valley we all call home. I look forward to meeting you all
personally at this year's Santa Ynez Valley Youth Recreation events!
With sincere thanks,
Madi Bramsen 2018 SYVYR Queen
