Sequim Irrigation Festival

Sponsor: 5^th Avenue Retirement Center

Ashley seems shy when you first meet her, but she is full of life. She is looking forward to having once in a lifetime experiences as an Irrigation Festival Princess. Performing community service is something that Ashley enjoys and is excited at the prospect of meeting lots of people over the course of the next year.

Ashley is the 18 year old daughter of Mary and Milton Fuentes and has lived in Sequim all her life. Ashley enjoys spending time with her family, which also includes an older brother and their dog, going on hikes, taking trips to the beach and shopping trips to Seattle. When she is not spending time with family, she enjoys hanging out with her friends, going to movies, volunteering at her church and more shopping. Family is important to Ashley and she hopes to have a big family of her own one day.

Ashley is intrigued by the law, and plans to major in criminal justice at either the University of Washington or Western Washington University. She believes that being a prosecutor “will make her want to come to work every day”.

Participating in Random Acts of Kindness is one way that Ashley has a chance to make everyone’s days a little bit better. She belongs to the Soroptimist Women in Networking program, working to help women of all ages, and has an opportunity to help freshmen become successful in high school as a member of Link Crew.

Ashley is very excited about the year ahead and “can’t wait to be in the festivals and meet people” around Western Washington.
