| It was an hilarious, mind-bending, woman-less "beauty" pageant last night at
the Calhoun County Park, raising over $1000 for the American Cancer
Society. Minnie Hamilton Health Care Center's Relay for Life Team, called
the "Heaven's Helpers" sponsored the contest which featured nearly a dozen
men dressed as women.

The event concluded with the crowing of the pageant winner "Queen
Queenie," a well-known local politician who said this could be the end of his
public career. Several of the other performers received special
recognition.
It was standing room only in the park barn, the audience more than amused
at the performances of local men who volunteered to perform.

Could this be Aunt Bea?
WVRC Radio personality, a spectacle himself, was MC for the program, which
called for the contestants to dance, participate in a "pretty" legs contest,
answer questions, demonstrate talent and appear in evening wear.
