[Durham INC] Beaver Queen Pageant: today on Public Radio

[John Schelp]

Today on the State of Things: Beaver Queen Pageant

The Beaver Queen Pageant is a mix of costumes, excess and shady dealings. It boasts participants with names like Scarlett O'Beavah and Cherry Cherry Bang Bang DaBeava. 

Saturday is the 7th Annual Beaver Queen Pageant, and it's all for a good cause: raising money for the Durham-based Ellerbe Creek Watershed Association. 

Host [and past BQ Pageant judge] Frank Stasio talks to last year's Beaver Queen Virginia Bridges; and Marty Jarrell, co-founder of the pageant.
