Kyiesia Spencer of Belhaven was recently selected to participate in the 2014 Miss Jr. Teen Rocky Mount/Raleigh pageant competition that will take place on Oct. 4, 2014. Kyiesia learned of her acceptance into this year’s competition when the pageant announced their selections following interviewing in the local Rocky Mount/Raleigh area.  Kyiesia submitted an application and took part in an interview session that was conducted by this year’s Rocky Mount/Raleigh Pageant Coordinator.

Kyiesia will be competing for a share of thousands of dollars in prizes and specialty gifts that will be distributed to contestants. Kyiesia will be competing in the Miss Jr. Teen division, one of four divisions that will have young ladies ages 7 and 19 competing in modeling routines, which include casual and formal wear.  Most important, Kyiesia will display her personality and interviewing skills while interviewing with this year’s Rocky Mount/Raleigh judging panel.

Personality is the number one aspect that each contestant is judged on during all phases of competition.

If Kyiesia were to win the title of Miss Jr. Teen Rocky Mount/Raleigh, she would represent Rocky Mount/Raleigh and the surrounding communities at the National Competition that will take place in Orlando, Fla.  Over $30,000 in prizes and awards will be presented at the national competition while each winner enjoys this expense paid trip of five nights and six days in Orlando.

Community businesses, organizations and private individuals will assist Kyiesia in participating in this year’s competition by becoming an official sponsor to her.  Through sponsorship, each contestant receives all the necessary training, rehearsals and financial support which will allow Kyiesia to become a very confident and well-prepared contestant in this year’s Rocky Mount/Raleigh Pageant.

Any business, organization, or private individual who may be interested in becoming a sponsor to Kyiesia may contact the Miss Jr. Teen Rocky Mount/Raleigh Pageant Coordinator at 1-877- 403-6678.
