In the heart of the outdoor community, there are some stories that leave a mark far beyond their years. We honor the life and legacy of Miss Julia Grace Ashworth, a beautiful, bold, and deeply loved young girl whose light continues to shine through everyone she touched. Julia has been selected as Miss July in our 2025 Ladies In The Outdoors Calendar, and this honor is a reflection of the joy, spirit, and love she brought to our world.
A Spirit of Kindness and Adventure
Julia Grace embodied everything we value in our community: compassion, courage, curiosity, and a genuine love for the great outdoors. Whether she was sitting in a blind beside loved ones, smiling ear to ear in camo, or simply enjoying the beauty of nature around her, Julia brought heart and soul into every adventure.
Though her time on Earth was brief, her impact is everlasting. Her story inspires us to live with purpose, love deeply, and never take a single moment for granted.
The Julia Grace Foundation
To carry on her legacy, The Julia Grace Foundation was created as a light in dark times, a beacon of hope for families, youth, and communities in need. Through the Foundation’s work, Julia’s name continues to uplift others, encouraging empathy, healing, and joy in the outdoors.
The Foundation honors her memory through action:
Hosting youth outdoor programs that promote healing and connection
Donating venison to families experiencing food insecurity
Raising awareness about mosquito-borne illnesses like EEE
Supporting families with compassion during difficult times
These acts of service are more than just good deeds, they are reflections of Julia’s spirit, lighting a path forward for others.

We are profoundly honored to feature Julia as Miss July. Her infectious smile, fearless love for outdoor life, and tender heart represent the very soul of our community. Her image in this calendar serves as a reminder that we are all capable of lifting others up, of making a difference, and of living life with love and intention.
In every page turned, in every heart touched, Julia Grace lives on.
