Two new queens were crowned at the Scotiabank Junior Monarch Finals at the Wildey Gymnasium last (Saturday) night.
Thanks to Scotiabank the winners in both competitions walked away with $2 500 in cash each and a trophy. They also each received a voucher valued at $400 thanks to the Smart Store Inc. and a computer suite which includes a laptop, desk, chair and printer valued at $1 600 thanks to Courts Barbados Limited.
The winners’ prize money has been increased by a whopping $1 000 and all participants left with prizes valuing more than what was given out in previous years.
Due to unforeseen events, contestant No. 2 Just Kari did not compete. However, the judges have advised that she should automatically place ninth in the calypso segment of the Scotiabank Junior Monarch. This means that Just Kari will receive the prize of a $750 in cash along with a voucher valued at $400 from Smart Store Inc.
