At a networking meeting I attended earlier this week I heard a very inspiring word from one of the contestants of the upcoming Ms. Senior Jacksonville pageant. The pageant has four stated purposes:
- To allow women over the age of 60 to acknowledge their inner beauty and enhance their value in the community and in society
- To promote community awareness, showmanship and value of our seniors' atributes
- To educate our community that our seniors are active and vibrant
- To increase positive attitudes toward our seniors and their well-being

I think these ladies in the pageant are going to have a ball! It's amazing that they are courageous enough to be the first group of ladies to step out and participate.
Did you know the queen will move on to the state pageant?
They are very courageous indeed Kenyonn, I really do admire all of them. And it's wonderful that they have the opportunity to celebrate being who they are, especially in a culture that values youth over all, or so it seems sometimes. I can't wait to see them strut their stuff at the pageant.
