SHORE SENIOR IDOL CONTEST

4 MS NEW JERSEY SENIOR AMERICA QUEENS + SHERRI MCGHIE PARTICIPATE IN 3RD ANNUAL SHORE SENIOR IDOL CONTEST


Now that pageant fever has calmed down, another exciting event is soon approaching, the 3rd Annual Shore Senior Idol Contest. Four MS NEW JERSEY SENIOR AMERICA QUEENS + SHERRI MCGHIE made the finals, and will join with 13 other contestants, at the Algonquin Arts Theater in Manasquan, on Sunday, June 26th at 3:00 pm.


Besides Sherri McGhie, the Queens are: Johanne Santori, MSNJSA 2006, and MS NEW JERSEY SENIOR AMERICA STATE PAGEANT DIRECTOR; Josephine Araniti, MSNJSA 2007; JoAnn Gordon, MSNJSA 2008; and Rebecca Orsatti, MSNJSA 2010.


The contestants met at the Algonquin Theater for the first time on Thursday, June 16th. Director Gina Lupi, gave a brief welcome and orientation speech, and rehearsed the opening number with the group. Afterwards, everyone got the chance to go over their solos with the sound crew.


There was a feeling of excitement and anticipation in auditorium that day. Everyone has their "eye on the prize(s)". Who will win, place or show?" That's a secret that only the 3 judges know!


The contestants, with talent "on loan from God", pledge to perform their very best. In particular, our 4 Queens + Sherri McGhie, possess extraordinary vocal prowess that their NEW JERSY CAMEO CLUB sisters know and love.


This year's 3rd Shore Senior Idol Contest will be hosted by another Queen, Bernadette Dudek, MSNJSA 2009. There will be a special performance by the Shore Repertory Theatre Company's production of NUNSENSE!


Please plan to attend and support our great ladies! The Shore Senior Idol Contest, is rated general, and can be enjoyed by the entire family.
