Miss Earth Belize 2013 leaves Belize Saturday

HeadlineMiss Earth Belize 2013 leaves Belize Saturday

On August 24, 2013, 21-year-old Miss Amber Reneé Rivero was crowned Miss Earth Belize, and this coming Saturday, November 9, Amber will depart the country for the first leg of her journey as the formal Environmental Ambassador of Belize.

En route to Manila, Philippines, Amber leaves Belize and heads to Miami, Florida, for a few days, where she will undergo final training for the pageant.

The journey continues on Thursday, November 14, when she leaves Miami for Manila. Upon arriving in the Philippines, Miss Rivero will participate in a number of preliminary competitions before the date of the actual pageant, which includes a swimsuit and a costume competition.

In light of the actual Miss Earth International theme “International Year of Water Cooperation”, Miss Rivero will model a costume depicting one of the greatest features of the Earth, The Belize Blue Hole.

Furthermore, for the first time, this year Belize will take part in the Miss Earth International Talent Competition. Amber intends to wow the judges with a rendition of a piece on the violin called ‘Romanza’, which was composed by our very own Governor General of Belize, Sir Colville Young.

In Miss Rivero’s acceptance speech, she shared her delight of having the opportunity to make a difference in Belize; however, she is only the spark. Miss Amber Rivero needs the support of you, her fellow Belizeans. Every affirming word makes a world of a difference.

In addition, we could show our support by voting for Amber in the official Miss Earth International “Miss Photogenic” competition. This can be done by liking her photo on the Miss Earth Facebook page or by visiting www.missearth.tv .

On the same page, you can again vote for her for the “Best Environmental Video.” Show some warm Belizean support to Miss Amber Reneé Rivero, a young lady who is eager to show what Belize has to offer.

Miss Rivero will represent Belize and its natural wonders on the international stage at the Miss Earth International Pageant to be held in Manila, Philippines, on December 7, 2013.
