Miss Friendship Pageant 2007


Yesterday, I went to cover the Chinatown Chamber of Commerce's 25th Anniversary Gala & Miss Frienship Ambassador Pageant. This was held at the Hilton Hotel in downtown Chicago. The dinner tickets was sold to raise money for the Chinatown Chamber of Commerce.. Raffle tickets were sold as well as a Silent Auction to help with the fund raising. There was entertainment and live music. The highlight was the Miss Friendship Ambassador Pageant. The winner of the pageant gets prize money, gifts, and a trip to Hong Kong to compete in the pretigious pageant.

The winner this year was contestant #11, Miss Nancy Yinan Xu (pictured in the center. Here are some PHOTOS I took.
