The pageant was held in the Fairview High School auditorium. The pageant was open to “super seniors,” aged 70-79 and “seniors,” aged 60-69. Pageant Director Gidget Gregory said the sisterhood was definitely evident this year. “It was actually overheard backstage, one saying, ‘I hope she wins,’” Gregory said. “They all loved the American theme, with the touch of Dolly Parton added to it.” The ladies were scored in the categories of interview, fun fashion, active wear, evening gown and on-stage question. “There were five ladies competing in the Ms. Senior Cullman County division and three ladies competing in the Ms. Super Senior Cullman County division,” Gregory said. “We are so excited for the things to come. We plan to rest a few days and then get back at again with prepping with the new queens for state.” The pageant was founded by the late Betty Leeth Haynes. Gregory said after being crowned Ms. Senior Alabama in 1997, Haynes was inspired to give other ladies in Cullman County a similar opportunity. Thus the pageant
