On April 14th, our Miss New York Class of 2013 was completed at the Miss Brooklyn Pageant! A few of the current titleholders were in the audience to support the girls competing at the Brooklyn Music School Playhouse.
Thanks to a donor, who chose to remain anonymous, the organization was able to not only crown a Miss Brooklyn, but a Miss Five Boroughs and Miss Greater Gotham, as well! Three very special girls took the titles: Stephanie Accardo (Miss Brooklyn), Teresa Lii (Miss Five Boroughs), & Katie Berry (Miss Greater Gotham).
I can't wait until Miss New York Week in July. I know that we have 24 intelligent, talented, philanthropic young women and anyone can be Miss New York 2013! We are going to have an amazing time together. Congratulations to the Class of 2013:
