All proceeds benefit the March of Dimes.
BECKLEY -- Beauty queens and kings showed their stuff Sunday at the Soldiers Memorial Theater in Beckley.
The pageant is a fundraising event hosted by the March of Dimes. Organizers say all contestants will receive a crown, trophy, and a March of Dimes bear for their participation.
Both boys and girls, ages 5 to 16 took part in today's pageant. Parents said it's a great event to raise awareness.
The money raised goes towards research for premature births, birth defects, and low birth weigh babies.
