Pageant deadline set for Jan. 28

The deadline of Jan. 28 is fast approaching for young girls between the ages of 5-10 to participate in the annual Little Miss Snow Princess and Miss Snow Princess pageants. A parent/contestant meeting will be held that evening at 5:30 p.m. in the Magnolia Room of the Warren County Administrative Building. Registration may be completed and applications can be turned in at that time.

The event will change venues this year, moving to the facilities at the McMinnville Civic Center. The pageant will be held Feb. 9 at 5 p.m., and is a project of the McMinnville Junior Auxiliary.

‘We are very excited to be at the civic center this year,’ said JA president Susan Burks. ‘Many hours of planning go into an event like this and we want as many as possible to enjoy the pageant.’

Little Miss contestants must be 5-7 years of age by the pageant date; and Miss Snow Princess contestants must be 8-10 by the pageant date. Girls must be a resident of Warren County and submit an application with entry fee of $55 to enter. A photo of the contestant may be submitted for the Miss Photogenic competition and for publication in the newspaper.

The reigning Little Miss Snow Princess is Daysha Ramirez, daughter of Alvaro and Angela Ramirez; and the Miss Snow Princess is McKayla Todd, daughter of Ericka and Jamie Todd.

All applications must be received by Jan. 28 and can be found at Ashley’s attic, Kathy’s Bridal, Paula’s Dance Academy, Memories Bridal and Mommy and Me.
