Miss Maryland Galaxy Pageants

in Miss DC, Parties/Events

I had the pleasure of co-hosting the inaugural Miss Maryland Galaxy Pageants yesterday in Germantown, MD with Miss Maryland USA 2007, Michae Holloman. National titleholders, Miss Teen Galaxy, Miss Galaxy, Ms. Galaxy, and Mrs. Galaxy were also in attendance.

The pageant was produced by Half Past Six Production company, and was the hippest (and most efficient) pageant I have seen, with highly energetic music and super fast show flow. Can I say that my favorite part was that we were out of there in under two hours, including photos after the crowning? Oh yeah, and I absolutely love making young women into Queens, too!!
Another highlight was meeting Leathia West, Miss Black D.C. Teen 1972. There are so few of us who have had the amazing opportunity to represent the District, under the many pageant titles now available, and I love to reconnect with others who have given their service to help make our home such a wonderful place. Leathia’s probably off on her Harley somewhere in the sun today – her favorite pasttime now that her children are off in college 🙂
Congrats to Rachel Petty on a fabulous production and Best of Luck in your year to all of the the winners!
