Best of Luck to the Miss Northwestern Ohio Program


Tomorrow night at the Defiance Community Auditorium Heather Waterman will crown a new Miss Northwestern Ohio! The pageant begins at 7:30 p.m.

As Miss Northwestern, this Wright State University grad won a preliminary award at Miss Ohio for her stellar swimsuit presentation. Heather, a vocalist, has already secured her third trip back to Mansfield as Miss Clayland.

Heather was the fourth Mercer County woman in five years to hold the Miss NWO title. Only one contestant has the ability to keep the Mercer County streak alive; however, all the contestants are from the Northwest area, despite this long time "closed" pageant now being open to whole state.

  1. Katie Ulrich is not competing this weekend due to a funeral. The girls were asked to sign a sympathy card for her at rehearsal tonight. I do not know the details but our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family, Katie.
