The beauty-and-brains competition is open to young females age 16 to 25 years old.<\/p>\n<p>According to Adaza, some of their contestants were muses for basketball teams that joined previous UFO leagues.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe would like to have about 10 to 12 candidates at most,\u201d added Adaza.<\/p>\n<p>Adaza said pageant contenders will be competing in four different categories: sportswear, talent portion, formal wear, and question-and-answer.<\/p>\n<p>She said the community can look forward to exciting production numbers from the candidates who will be handled by pageant coordinator Joel Vallega.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Adaza is inviting food and non-food vendors who want to sell their products or merchandise at the event to sign up now. Slots for the 10&#215;20 tent space are still available at $50 for food and $40 for non-food vendors.
