posing before the cameras of photos and television of the graphic reporters.
The 21 candidates will go next Tuesday, August 10, to the Arrecife City Council, where they will be received by the capital's mayor, Cándido Reguera, and on Wednesday they will make their offering for the most needy in the municipality in the parish of San Ginés. On Friday, August 13, at 9:30 p.m., the pre-gala will take place, choosing Miss Congeniality, Photogenicity and Elegance.
One of the aspirants could not be present yesterday in the halls of the
Arrecife Gran Hotel due to illness, although it is expected that very soon she
join the journey of these 21 aspirants to the titles of Miss Arrecife
and Queen of the Festivities 2010, who have scheduled for the nine days remaining for the contest.
