Modelling contest comes to Woy Woy

The Miss Country Girl Australia contest is coming to the Peninsula this month.

Deepwater Plaza in Woy Woy will host the preliminary final and a fashion parade on August 7 and 14.

"Miss Country Girl Australia provides young women an opportunity to establish a professional and exciting modelling career," national director Ms Katie Jones said.

"Contestants are given the opportunity to participate in a modelling workshop hosted by an industry recognised choreographer who currently is a Miss Universe Australia choreographer.

"Here they learn all the skills required to transform themselves into a supermodel; such as deportment, etiquette, walking and talking skills as well as industry tips and tricks.

"No experience is required as Miss Country Girl Australia acts as a platform for local girls to enter the modelling arena.

"It can also act as a catalyst for young girls to increase their confidence and experience on the catwalk.

"One winner will then be invited to compete at the national final in Sydney for the title of Miss Country Girl Australia 2010 this November in front of an industry and celebrity-studded crowd."
