9 to contest Miss Earth Pageant 2018

Nine beauties from across Guyana will compete for the title of Miss Earth 2018 which is slated for later this month.
The last Miss Earth Guyana Pageant was held in 2010 when Soyini Fraser was crowned queen but a representative was sent up for the international pageant as recent as 2014.
It was local belle Stacy Ramcharran who took the crown back then, but after the franchise was lost one year later, it was not possible to choose another girl. As such, she remains the reigning Miss Earth Guyana; that is until the grand coronation of Miss Earth Guyana 2018.
The Miss Earth Pageant is one with a difference which gives women from across the country the opportunity to raise awareness, not only about the environment but health related issues that follow.
As the pageant builds momentum, the contestants were sashed at a Gala Dinner and Sashing Ceremony held at the Aracari Hotel.
Miss Earth Guyana 2018 and her court will benefit from a prize package of over one million dollars in cash and other prizes. The coronation night is scheduled for April 28.
Vying for the title of Miss Earth 2018 are Xamiera Kippins, Prudence Lam, Luann Pellew, Merissa Garraway, Anita Baker, Gabriella Chapman, Oriana Castello, Akisha Payne and Anasa Williams.
