Mrs. British Virgin Islands, Shondrea Turnbull will serve as the queen for one additional year in light of the Coronavirus pandemic.
This follows a meeting that was held by committee to discuss the current situation due to restrictions on the Territory and the global pandemic that is affecting the ability to host events with mass gatherings.
The decision was made to defer the fundraising event and the selection of Mrs. British Virgins Islands Globe, Curve and Classique to February 2021.
Pageant Director Alicia Green said “Our plans were to launch something new, something fresh however we need you to hold on for it in 2021. The current Mrs. British Virgin Islands, Shondrea Turnbull will remain the representative.”
She further said “As time progresses more information will be shared regarding developments and plans for 2021. We would like take this opportunity to thank our sponsors and supporters and look forward to your continued support in 2021.”
Reigning queen Mrs. Turnbull made history in 2019 by placing 6th at the Mrs. Globe Pageant in Shenzhen, China. She also copped the “Woman of excellence” award while Alicia Green won the “Director of the year”.
As part of Turnbull’s extended reign, she will continue to support Women In Need (WINBVI) with the community outreach as their ambassador.
The committee has also decided to open candidacy until July 31st 2020. Interested persons are asked to contact 4404122 or winbvi@gmail.com for further details.
