From the President's Desk of Founder and Director,
Kenyonn Demps
As the Founder and Director of A Seasoned Affair, Inc. I am excited and honored to have this opportunity to introduce the crowning of our 13th Annual Ms. Senior Jacksonville and our 5th Annual Ms. Senior Diva (women aged 50-59),. Each of these pageants will celebrate senior women who have contributed to our communities and who believe that age is only a number. Our pageant days will be one to remember when our dynamic senior women showcase an opening number to a musical oldie and exude their confidence by modeling evening gowns of their choice. The ladies will simplistically share their talent, and eloquently, their words of wisdom.
Research shows that as women age, they feel under-valued, lack empowerment, feel depressed and overall lack confidence and self worth. Our pageants are an opportunity for our mothers, sisters, aunts, grandmothers, friends, and associates to be recognized, feel valued, beautiful, and empowered as “special” ladies in our senior citizen community.
In March 2008, Mayor Peyton noted his goal is for “Jacksonville to become the most senior friendly city in the State of Florida”. What better way to acknowledge our seniors than for our senior queens to proudly represent her peers and our beautiful cities and to moved forward in the Ms. Senior Florida pageant.Your sponsorship is welcomed, appreciated, and will speak volumes when seniors, their families, and our community witness the positive outcomes of pageantry for senior women and their families and friends. Just imagine the rewards, the joyful tears, the big smiles, and the difference when our senior women embrace new friendships and regain their confidence!
