Two local sisters are competing for the title of Miss Michigan. Competition to be held June 15-18 at Frauenthal Theater in Downtown Muskegon.
The Miss Bay County Organization is proud to announce Sydney Learman will be competing against 33 contestants from around Michigan to take the title of Miss Michigan 2011. One of those contestants is her sister Cameron Learman, Miss Lady of the Lakes. In the history of Miss Michigan, this is the third time that this has happened.
Linda Bilhimer, Executive Director of the Miss Bay County Scholarship Program is impressed with the caliber of this year's contestants. "We are very pleased with the number of intelligent, ambitious and talented young women who have entered the competition,"
Bilhimer said. "With the number of outstanding contestants, it will be a challenging task for the judges to choose the next Miss Michigan. "I'm so proud of Sydney and all of her accomplishments." Sydney is a Graduate from Albion College Bachelor of Arts, Graduate from Western High School and is attending Wayne State University obtaining a Doctorate of Dental Surgery Degree.
Contestants will compete in 5 phases of competition at the competition, including interview, talent, evening wear, on-stage platform question and swim wear. During the competition, each contestant will also discuss her chosen platform, a social or community issue of concern to herself and our society at large. Sydney's Platform is A Child's Heart: American Heart Association. For Sydney's talent she will be playing the Piano.
In order for a young woman to compete in the Miss Michigan Program, they must have won a local program. Currently, the Miss Michigan Program has 33 local programs that send contestants to the state program, and Michigan sends one of our finest ladies to the Miss America Pageant, where over $40 Million dollars in cash scholarships are made available to the 52 state title holders.
Parents of Sydney and Cameron are Mike and Lindsay Learman.
During the week of Miss Michigan Events, Mallory Rivard will be a representative for Michigan in the Michigan Outstanding Teen Pageant. Mallory is the daughter of Troy and Wendy Rivard. Michigan Outstanding Teen Competition is June 17, 2011.
