Miss Florida USA 2011

Day One

 

 

Registration:

At exactly Three O’clock the 2011 Miss Florida USA Pageant officially began with delegate registration. The Westin Diplomat Resort and Spa on Hollywood Beach greeted the sixty one delegates competing for the title. The Great Hall Convention Center Lobby provided the background of fifty foot frozen palms to greet our ladies.

 

Registration is where you meet roommates, contestant coordinators; receive the pageant week schedule and hotel room assignments. The Diplomat Resort and Spa rolled out the red carpet for our delegate’s first introduction to this world-class resort. The week is going to be spectacular and it all started out with the sunshine awaiting our ladies on Tuesday afternoon.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Miss Florida USA Dining Series -

Mama Mia’s on Hollywood’s Young Circle

After an introductory meeting with our delegates we headed west towards Downtown Hollywood and Mama Mia’s Italian Restaurant on Young Circle as the Miss Florida USA Dining Series began. This is a three night feast of culinary delights that features the best or food our South Florida region has to offer. Italian and Sushi provided a twist that provided the ladies with a fun meal as life time friendships are beginning! This is truly a great time as new friends are being made as the fun of Miss Florida USA has just begun!

 

Located right on Young’s Circle, Mama Mia’s has been a wonderful sponsor of our pageant as they hosted their first opening night for Miss Florida USA. The ladies had time to meet and greet before it was upstairs in their private dinning room. The food was great and so were the pictures. Bon Appetite!
