Prince Charles T. Olson

Our buddy Erik Thorkelson is a senior this year and he was asked if he knows any cute kids.  He said naturally he thought of Charlie right away!  St. Peter High School was looking for "pages" to help crown the King and Queen for Snow Week.  Charlie was very excited to participate until we got there.  It was very overwhelming to him at first with the loud band and tons of BIG kids.  After making a deal with Mom (ice cream and Hot Wheels cars was the price I had to pay), he got through it and even smiled!
We have pictures of Uncle Tim and Uncle Gabe as princes when they were little, helping at the Dell Rapids High School coronation.

Tim and I met Erik (his mom works with Tim) when we first moved here and it has been great to watch him grow up!

So glad it is over!

Linc hopes to have Charlie's job in a few years.

Last year's King helped Charlie with the big job.

Great job Buddy!  We are proud of you for taking on a big job and following thru!  Can't wait to see YOU crowned as the King your senior year.
