Nine of 13 Mz. Gorgeous contestants gather for a group photo during a calendar photo shoot by Sutton Studios. The contestants competed for the title of Mz. Gorgeous to raise funds for the Afton Splash Pad, which was installed in Afton City Park. Pictured, from left, are Mike Fry, Darren Moore, Josh Hamilton, Rick Friday, Chad Cass, Justin Staver, Dwain Ripperger, Adam Tallman and Todd Hamilton.

A Mz. Gorgeous Contest will be held 7 p.m. March 5 at East Union Community School. This event is being held to benefit the Aton Walking Trail expansion project. Dinner will be at 5 p.m.

Organizers of the Mz. Gorgeous Contest are asking local businesses to sponsor a contestant. Their goal is to have twelve contestants. A donation of $100 would have your business name on a sash worn by a contestant, be mentioned at various times during the stage show, and promoted in ads.

Contestants will compete in three areas: Lingerie, evening wear and talent.

To compete, contact Devon Springer at 641-344-0946. To become a sponsor, call Retta Ripperger at 641-782-0918.
