3) a wheelchair user for 100% of activities performed outside your home?

Don't waste anytime, start on your application TODAY!  Just follow this link and you will be on your way to possibly being the next Ms Wheelchair Tennessee. 

Do you know someone that is qualified to be the next Ms Wheelchair Tennessee? Then we need you to nominate them!!  Follow this link to nominate someone for the pageant.  Nominate a Contestant.

The 2014 Pageant will be March 22, 2014 

in Knoxville, Tennessee 

at the Crowne Plaza Hotel. 

Deadline to sign up is January 15, 2014.   

There is a $300 entire fee which covers the contestant's hotel stay, parking, and lunch for them and a companion.  You are encouraged to obtain sponsorship from friends and family or businesses for your entry fee.  (I raised my $300 in less than 4 hours by one little post on Facebook!)

Even though contestants are showcased in a pageant format, the Ms Wheelchair Tennessee pageant is not a beauty contest.  It is a competition to choose the most accomplished and articulate spokeswoman for people with disabilities across Tennessee.

Each contestant will take part in a day long event which includes workshops and several rounds of interviews by a panel of judges.  The day concludes with a ceremony to feature each contestant and to crown the new Ms Wheelchair Tennessee, Junior Miss Wheelchair Tennessee and Little Miss Wheelchair Tennessee

I promise whether you leave with or without a crown, this experience is one you will carry with you forever.  And, if you don't leave with a crown you can come back and compete again!

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me by email at mwtn2013BlissWelch@gmail.com.  I have throughly enjoyed my time as Ms Wheelchair Tennessee and will forever be apart of the Ms Wheelchair Tennessee organization.
