FORT SMITH - Some of the best and brightest students on the UA-Fort Smith campus will be participating in this weekend’s Miss UAFS pageant. The event takes place Saturday night at 7:00 PM.
Miss UAFS is a preliminary to the Miss Arkansas Pageant, which will take place in June in Hot Springs. The winner of Miss Arkansas will then go on to compete in the Miss America Pageant. Contestants will compete in five events: evening gown, interview, physical fitness and swimsuit, talent, and on-stage question and answer. Scholarships will be awarded to Miss UAFS, runners-up, and various category winners, such as congeniality, GPA and interview.
