The evening started with a dance number starring Miss Wilson and Ms. Deferrari and our West Broward delegates. Then it was time for self introductions which allowed the audience and judges could to gain insight before the two competitions began. First up were swimsuits as the delegates hit the stage in one or two piece suits of their own choosing. Then it was the audience’s favorite as fashion was on display in the Evening Gown competition. Earlier in the day the Interview Competition took place with the delegates and judges in a panel style format.
