Belmopan Queens – Then & Now
Belmopan Queens – THEN
A total of 73 young women have been crowned “Queen of The Bay” in Belize. The first competition was held in 1946 and the first Queen was Miss Rita Lewis. Back in those days, the pageant was limited to Belize City but today 1 young lady from each of the 6 Districts vies for the crown. Interestingly, our Director’s mom, Miss Desiree Smith, was a past Queen and won the title of Queen of the Bay Belmopan in 1987.
