The third annual Ms. Senior Davie County Pageant  will be Thursday, Sept. 27 at 6:30 p.m. at First Baptist Church in Mocksville.

Contestants should plan to attend two rehearsals – Sept. 18 at 2:30 and Sept. 26 at 4 p.m. Contestants must be 55 or older and a resident of Davie County. There are four areas of competition – talent, evening gown, “I Believe” statement and interview.

“This pageant is designed to showcase aging in a positive way by focusing on the inner beauty, style, poise and talent of ladies 55 and older,” said Kim Shuskey, director of Davie Senior Services. The winner will represent senior services and the county in special events throughout the reigning year.  She will also attend next year’s pageant to help crown Ms. Senior Davie County 2019.

A Meet and Greet for all prospective contestants will be held Friday, Aug. 17 at 2 p.m. at Senior Services. The meet and greet is not required for participation.  Applications can be picked up at Senior Services at the Bobby H. Knight Senior Services Building, 278 Meroney St., Mocksville, or by visiting www.daviecountync.gov/seniorservices.  Deadline for submitting applications is Sept. 4.
