Sponsors Needed for Ninth Annual Miss Cardinal City Pageant

San Bernardino High School is seeking sponsors for its ninth annual Miss Cardinal City pageant, scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 21 at Sturges Center for the Fine Arts. Bilingual School Outreach Worker Jamie Rios founded the Miss and Mr. Cardinal City pageants to promote school pride and self-esteem among the students. The pageants have blossomed into a chance for students to develop leadership skills and become involved in their community. Miss Cardinal City contestants, all high school seniors, compete in both on- and off-stage events. A panel of community judges will rank contestants in the Sept. 21 on-stage events, including evening gown, interview, and sportswear. Off-stage rankings include grades and attendance. Rios hopes local businesses will support the school and young ladies by sponsoring the event. Sponsorships may include prizes for Miss Cardinal City and her court, refreshments for the judges, or any support a business or group can provide. “Being Miss Cardinal, to me, is being a role model to other young ladies and giving back to my community and my school,” current Miss Cardinal City Brianda Chavez said. “And, I’ve gained so much from the whole process. I’ve gained experience, friendships, and confidence.” Miss Cardinal City 2013–2014 will represent San Bernardino High School alongside reigning Mr. Cardinal David Skidmore and his court, Richard Escalera and Gregory Noble. Sponsors for Mr. Cardinal 2013–2014, held in April, included D’Arca Formal Wear, San Bernardino City Unified School District, Stater Bros. Markets, San Bernardino High School Class of 1961, San Bernardino High School Associated Student Body, Jim Smith, and Corina Borsuk. To sponsor the Miss Cardinal City pageant, contact Jamie Rios at 909-881-8058.
