π₯βͺ THROWBACK THURSDAY β PART 9 βͺπ₯
In this clip, AHSRA alumni Aubrey Ross talks about the flashy red shirt she wore in Grand Entry as the first princess to AHSRA Queen Kally Wills β and laughs about the fact that it was the first time sheβs ever rocked fringe. β€οΈβ¨
While Aubrey has no plans to run for Queen in the future (despite Auntie Jamie always suggesting she should π), both she and Steve agree that Miss Kally Wills has done an amazing job representing Alberta at Nationals β and that being Queen takes far more work than most people realize.
One last clip still incoming β stick with us.

π₯βͺ THROWBACK THURSDAY β FINAL PART βͺπ₯
In this final clip, Team Albertaβs super fan, Steve Bishell, closes out his last interview β and you can hear the emotion in his voice. Thereβs reflection, gratitude, and a deep sense of pride as he talks about watching Aubrey Ross grow into the competitor and role model sheβs become.
With Steveβs youngest son, Nathan, now graduated and moving on, this truly marks the end of the road for Steveβs chapter with AHSRA. After years of supporting, cheering, interviewing, and championing Team Alberta kids, this is his final sign-off.
A full-circle moment β for Aubrey, for Steve, and for everyone who has been part of this journey.
Thank you, Steve and Aubrey, for your years of dedication to AHSRA and for sharing this candid, heartfelt interview with all of us.
And a special thank you from AHSRA to Steve β for the countless hours, the unwavering support, and the passion you brought to Team Alberta. π€
