Miss SU Set for January 18

Alyssa Hurst, the reigning Miss Southern Union, will complete her year of service as a new Miss Southern Union is crowned on January 18 in the Renaissance Theater on Southern Union’s Wadley Campus.

The Miss Southern Union pageant is an official preliminary to the Miss Alabama/Miss America Pageant.  Competing for this year’s title are: Skylar Mclain (Wadley), Brynli Mitchell (Sylacauga), Caroline Lybarger (Madison), Anna Grace Tucker (Huntsville), Meleah Lambert (Roanoke) and Gracie Click (Loundon, Tenn.)

Contestants are judged in private interview, onstage question, talent, health and fitness, and evening wear. In addition to each of the judged categories, contestants must select a community service project in which they are currently involved or about which they feel strongly.

The Miss Southern Union Pageant is open to SU students who are enrolled full-time. The pageant will begin at 7 p.m. and admission is $5 at the door. For more information about the pageant or to book an appearance by Miss Southern Union, contact Shondae Brown, pageant director, at 256-395-2211.
