Search
is on for Ms. Red Cross 2001
The
Philippine National Red Cross (PNRC) Catanduanes
Chapter has launched the search for Miss Red
Cross Catanduanes 2001, with coronation rites
set in September to name the province's official
candidate to the national pageant in December.
According
to officer-in-charge Dave L. Templonuevo, Jr.,
the search will focus on the traditional
international beauty pageant set-up after
selecting the qualified ladies who are strongly
supportive to the objectives of the PNRC by
gathering votes/ballots that will sustain the
multifarious health and welfare services of the
chapter.
Candidates
from the towns will participate in two contest
phases, with the first a popularity tilt wherein
candidates will solicit votes from donors and
benefactors to determine their rankings.
Those
who land in the top 11 will automatically be the
semi-finalists, with the one posting the highest
number of votes awarded a special title.
In
the final phase, all candidates start from
scratch and will be judged on intelligence,
ability to express one's self and special talent
(30%); beauty of face (30%); poise and
personality (20%); and, beauty of figure (20%).
There will be no bathing suit competition in the
final judging.
Among
the qualifications needed by interested ladies
include: beauty of face and figure; 16 to 25
years old; at least 5'2" in height; has
reached at least college level; be fit to attend
Red Cross functions where her presence is
required; must be sponsored by the municipal
government; and, must have the consent of her
parents or guardians.
The
chapter board headed by chairman Atty. Miguel
Concepcion has already asked municipal mayors to
create their respective committees in support of
the fund-raising drive.
