10 for Miss Amerindian Heritage Pageant

10 delegates will be vying for the crown of Miss Amerindian Heritage 2013.

The young ladies recently returned from a visit to Mashabo Village, Region Two, where they engaged in a pre-pageant activity which included a trek around the Ituribisci Lake to the village.

There they participated in a number of activities.

The evening of September 28 will include guest appearances by many Indigenous artists and the pageant will be divided into the following segments; introductory, traditional wear, discussion of their platform, talent, evening wear (this segment will not be judged, since it is just for display) and the final question.

The Miss Amerindian Pageant is not just a beauty pageant, but a display of their rich cultural heritage in a complete package.

Patrons will not be disappointed, so come out and support the Miss Amerindian Heritage Pageant. The next staging of the pageant will be in 2015. Tickets are available at the National Cultural Centre and the Amerindian Affairs Ministry and will cost $1500, 2000, and $2500.
