Miss Nevada USA Hopefuls Get Tips from Miss USA 2011 Alyssa Campanella

Anticipation was running high on Saturday as pageant hopefuls gathered for the official 2014 Miss Nevada USA and Miss Nevada Teen USA pageant orientation at Life Time Athletic Summerlin. Former Miss USA and executive state director of the Miss Nevada USA organization, Shanna Moakler was accompanied by current Miss Nevada USA Chelsea Caswell and Miss USA 2011 Alyssa Campanella.

The pageant contestants had the exciting opportunity to gain insight and advice about the pageant, taking place on Sunday, Jan. 12, from reigning Nevada beauty Caswell and former queens Moakler and Campanella. The beauty queens mingled and posed for photos, before stopping by LifeSpa + Salon by Michael Boychuck, the official hair sponsor for the Miss Nevada USA organization, located inside Life Time Athletic. To conclude the fun-filled day, the contestants enjoyed a dynamic course in women’s self-defense taught by Life Time Athletic instructors Matt Hodges and Eric Watts.
