The competition started with the delegates introducing themselves in their red cocktail dresses. They were introduced by the afternoon hosting team of Lissette Garcia (Miss Miami Tropic  2011) and Danielle Pierce (Miss Florida Keys Teen USA 2010). The opening competition was the onstage interviews as they answered questions drawn at random. The swimsuit competition was next as the delegates wore one or two-piece suits of there own choosing. Then it was everybody’s favorite the evening gown competition. First the teen delegates and then the miss delegates all had the chance to show off their personal fashion sense.

Then all was left was to announce the special prizes and the results for the Miss Florida Keys USA pageant. The special awards were up first as our winners are qualified for state. The delegates voted Miss Amity to be Katherine Pena. While our staff photographers voted the Miss Photogenic award to Natalie Carbonell.

 

Before the results were read The Miss Florida Keys Teen USA title was awarded to Marissa Gasper who won in a walkover. Then the Miss USA delegates were called centerstage for the results:
