Deadline Alert: Enter Miss Miami Valley!

Executive Director Ronda Morris is one of the sweetest people I met during my years of competing; contestant's chance to enter her pageant this year has almost past! The entry deadline is this Tuesday, August 14. The pageant is Saturday September 1 in Dayton at the Montgomery County Fair.

You can download paperwork at www.missohio.org and mail it to 2204 Dinah Court Mt. Juliet, TN 37122 or 2646 Highland Village Drive Miamisburg, OH 45342. Since the deadline is looming so close, you’d probably be wise to let the directors know you’re things are on the way, just in case. (Ronda: 615-773-4311; Tammy: 937-266-1863; missmiamivalley@missohio.org)

Ronda and Tammy are both wonderful and caring women. I was Miss Miami Valley back in 2003; two years later Melanie Murphy held the title and won Miss Ohio and this year Miss Miami Valley, Sophia Davis made the Top 10!

This pageant is a bargain; it’s $4 to get into the fair with no additional cost for the pageant. Some women may be hesitant to enter an outdoor pageant, but it’s like New York ladies, if you can make it there, you can make it anywhere! I won two outdoor pageants in my day and I feel I was a better contestant because of it!
