For the record, Ms. Tennessee Senior America loves “Miss Congeniality,” the popular 2000 film that pokes fun at beauty pageants. Sandy Elliott, 63, directed choirs at Mt. Juliet High School from 2001 to 2023 and never imagined entering a pageant — until she retired. Someone talked her into entering the Ms. Wilson County Fair senior pageant for ages 60-and-over in 2023 and the experience proved her doubts wrong. It led to a new lifestyle focused on fitness and diet that improved her health and confidence. She continued entering pageants and built on her success.

Gallery: Music City Mopar Club’s Annual All Mopar Show – Lebanon, TN
They say that “so much depends on the weather,” and if you were going to judge an event by that perimeter, then last weekend’s All Mopar Show hosted by the Music City Mopar Club (MCMC) would’ve ranked the highest of the year. With temps in the mid-to-high 70’s, a cool fall breeze continually blowing through the trees and almost cartoonishly puffy clouds rolling past overhead, the one-day event was as picturesque as it gets.
