The five beautiful contestants for the Miss San Pedro Pageant have started practicing for the grand event which will take place on Saturday, September 3, 2011 at the Old Football Field. Along with those practices comes some fun events including trips, dinners, photo shoots and more. This past weekend the girls, along with their chaperons, travelled to the beautiful city of Chetumal, Quintana Roo, Mexico, where they not only went shopping, but had the opportunity to meet with the Mayor of Othon P. Blanco.
One of the main purposes of this trip was for the girls to meet with the costume designer and shop for their evening attire, accessories and other ‘essentials’ needed for pageant night. Yakarelis, Joey, Christine, Trisha and Josie were also accompanied by Miss San Pedro 2010 – Natasha Stuart and all six of them were the guests of honor at the Coronation of Miss Earth Quintana Roo – Miss Ivana Zaldivar Perez.
On Saturday, August 13, the lovely contestants visited the Palacio Municipal of Chetumal where they met with the Mayor – Lic. Carlos Mario Villanueva Tenorio. Mr. Tenorio welcomed the delegates to Chetumal and presented them with the official pin of Chetumal and gave all of them a gift souvenir. During their visit Mr. Tenorio talked with the girls about the importance of making stronger ties with San Pedro, Ambergris Caye, conservation of natural resources, amongst other topics.
The Director of Tourism, Mr. Jorge Alberto Rejon Chan, accompanied the delegates to a fun visit to Chetumal’s BioUniverZoo. At the zoo the girls walked through live rich flora and fauna and had the opportunity to see black jaguars, monkeys, crocodiles, parrots, lizards and snakes to name a few.
The Miss San Pedro Delegates still have many luncheons, dinners, visits to Xunantunich and Cahal Pech Maya Site, Presentations at the Good Morning San Pedro morning show and official banquet in their honor.
