YOUNG ladies taking part in the 2026 Miss Central Trinidad Queen Pageant are expected to make a positive contribution to society. This is one of the clear objectives of the pageant, according to coordinator Marcia Merrick-Mohamed.
“We are looking for bright young women between the ages of 18 to 29. They must be positive, articulate and confident. One of the main qualities we are expecting from the young women is that they must not be satisfied with just winning a pageant, but are eager to make a positive difference in society. The show strives to empower young women and encourage them to be their best in every aspect of their lives,” explained Merrick-Mohamed, herself a former Miss Central Trinidad pageant winner.
Merrick-Mohamed gave an update on the screening of prospective contestants, which was held at the Lisas Gardens Community Centre, Couva, on January 3. The Miss Central Trinidad Queen Pageant is the marquee event of the six-day festivities organised by the Couva Carnival Committee (CCC).
