Pageant war history
As you may have seen in today’s Daily Press (the article isn’t online, other than in the epaper), a decision has been reached in the battle between the two rival pageant organizations each claiming the right to hold the Miss Hesperia, Miss Apple Valley and Miss Victorville pageants, with the original owner of the names, Empire Pageants, winning the battle.
In case you missed the previous stories on the subject, here’s a round-up of the Star’s coverage:
- Battle for the tiara
- Lawyer: Miss Hesperia fight may end in court
- Medical assistant crowned Miss Hesperia 2005
- Miss Hesperia dispute enters legal arena
- Tears and joy at Miss Hesperia Achievement Pageant
- Miss Hesperia passes the crown
- Struggle for pageant crown continues
- Pageant punch-up penultimate chapter: Judge grants preliminary injunction in Miss Hesperia dispute
- Miss Hesperia switches from a pink hardhat to a rhinestone tiara
Who knew that me covering the Miss Virginia pageant years ago would turn into a series of stories 3,000 miles away?
- Also in today’s Daily Press (but also not on the Web site, so you’ll have to check out the epaper) is a profile by Hillary Borrud of my cats’ vet, Dr. Ahmed of Hesperia Animal Hospital. Great, great vet and a great guy. His care for 20-year-old Motley Sue will forever endear him to me. And I recommend him wholeheartedly: He’s not cheap, but you get great value for your dollar.
