Beauty Pageants



                  

The South African Policy for Older Persons stipulates that the older persons have a right to access recreation facilities and programmes. Sports and recreational activities that are suited to older persons should be organised so as to enrich their lives and encourage creative use of their time.

The Department of Social Development held a multiracial beauty pageant for the oldies at Bolivia Lodge. The objective of this active ageing is to enhance the quality of life and improve health and well-being of older persons. Older persons are motivated to embrace ageing.

The oldies came in their numbers and enjoyed the speeches, much of entertainment and dancing. The contestants were giving their best and were declared winners. Prices were awarded to Golden boy & Golden girl, Mr & Miss Personality 1st Prince, 2nd Prince, 3rd Prince and 1st Princess, 2nd Princess, 3rd Princess.
