Madisyn Altendorf

Hello everybody! My name is Madisyn Altendorf!
I have been attending NDLS since I first came in 2022 as a candle! I am originally from Minto but I currently live in Grand Forks and attend UND as a management major! Ms. PMA would be such an honor and truly such a dream! Mr. And Ms. PMA made my time at NDLS the absolute best and were a huge reason why I decided to keep coming back every year! I would love to create the same energy and passion for leadership and NDLS that I felt my student leader year and for this year’s student leaders! I believe I would be an outstanding Ms. PMA not only because I love NDLS and what it stands for, but also because I know what it takes to keep the atmosphere filled with high energy and enthusiasm, and I most definitely would bring those qualities to seminar! I am so thankful for NDLS shaping me into the person and leader I am today, and would love the opportunity to pass on leadership skills and a positive mental attitude to future leaders this year as your 2026 Ms. PMA! Let’s make this seminar the most OUTSTANDING one yet! 

Lettie Caspers

Hi!! My name is Lettie Caspers and I came to NDLS in 2022 as a Candle!! I’m currently a sophomore at Concordia College in Moorhead, MN! During my time as a Cobber, I’ve done lots of service projects such as cleaning up parks around the area, volunteering to help out with the Concordia daycare center. I’m also involved in theatre and I’m a cheerleader! Something that I love to bring to NDLS is lots of energy and excitement! I can’t wait for this next seminar and potentially being one of the PMAs!!! 

Sarah Kempel

Hi!! My name is Sarah Kempel, and I’m originally from Casselton, ND, graduating from Central Cass High School. I first attended seminar in 2022 as a Candle (woosh), and have come back ever since, as a JC! I’ve been a Starfish (splat), a Werewolf (awooo), and, most recently, a Ringmaster (ROUNNNDDD). Currently, I attend UND, where I am in my third year, studying Atmospheric Sciences and Spanish. I am truly honored to have been nominated to be a Miss. PMA for this upcoming seminar, and would BRING the energy through never ending cheers, and non-stop fun!! I believe in the strength and power of student voices, whether in the ND State Legislature, or at local schools, and, with the right motivation and resources, students can make actionable, realistic change! As President of the North Dakota Student Association for the 2025-2026 Academic Year, I witness this take effect, firsthand, through willingness and support of legislators, school administrators, and many more listening to the ideas of passionate students. NDLS has truly shaped my life for the better, and I hope to give others that same feeling of eNDLeSs love!
