Miss Kentucky 2024 - Chapel Tinius
Chapel Tinius, 24, is a Bowling Green, KY native and daughter of Jim and Dana Tinius. Inspired by her two WWII veteran grandfathers, she created her Community Service Initiative: Operation Gratitude – For the Fallen, For the Fighting, For the Veterans. Her first project began at age six, collecting books and VHS tapes for deployed soldiers. She later received her grandfather’s Purple Heart, a symbol of the sacrifice she seeks to honor.
Through Operation Gratitude, Chapel has run over 25 half-marathons and 3 full marathons to raise funds for the Honor Flight Network. She also founded the Run to Fly 10K series across 10 Kentucky counties and helped launch the Youth Ambassador Program with Honor Flight Kentucky. She served on the national relay team for Carry The Load for three consecutive Mays, helping raise $2 million to support veterans and their families.
Chapel also created a violin/harp CD titled Gratitude as a music therapy gift for veterans, inspired by how music helped heal her grandfather. Deeply involved in the arts growing up, she performed in musicals, played harp and fiddle, and sang at First Baptist Church in Bowling Green. A proud graduate of Bowling Green High School and Belmont University, Chapel earned dual degrees in Musical Theatre and Corporate Communication.
She completed the Disney College Program and now lives in Lexington, KY. As Miss Kentucky, she aims to visit all 120 counties, promote Kentucky Proud products, and make education fun with music. She plans to include veterans in community events and advocate for the Homegrown by Heroes program, helping Kentuckians connect with local heroes.
