that Miss Bahamas Universe must avail itself of Internet technology to promote
the pageant locally and globally, said “Mr. Mark Sweeting, vice president,

“It’s
history in the making. This is our first ever Miss Bahamas Universe Pageant
and the first beauty pageant website in The Bahamas. We are extremely pleased
to be able to invite the Bahamian community to visit our site for up-to-date information on the pageant. In addition
to viewing the 24 delegates and their profiles on-line
you’ll find that it’s filled with information about the organization, the
