It’s official: Miss Missouri is in full swing.
Pun intended.
The 2022 Miss Missouri Golf Classic teed off Sunday at The Oaks in Mexico. The fundraiser allows the Miss candidates to mingle with Miss Missouri supporters on the golf course. Miss Missouri candidates were able to putt for golfers at three holes before leaving for rehearsals. At the end of the event, they joined teams for dinner.
Miss Missouri Callie Cox and Miss Missouri’s Outstanding Teen Ashley Berry welcomed the group which included teams: Pearl Motor Company, Show Me Credit Union, Alan Atkins, Webber Pharmacy, Mexico Jaycees, Broeker Engineering, Team Hebron, Alice and Lou Leonatti, Miss Missouri Academy, and Team Rigdon.

This will be the second year it has been a part of the festivities, offering an opportunity for folks to visit with the candidates.
Saturday on the Square started in lieu of the parade and has been well-received as Mexico’s downtown square beomes the center of the Miss Missouri universe for a short time. The 2022 edition will be held Saturday, June 18 from 9:30-11 a.m.
Candidates will line the downtown and Miss Missouri organizers welcome the public to stop by for a visit.
“The community is invited to come meet, get autographs and take pictures with Miss Missouri and all the candidates,” said a Miss Missouri spokesperson.
Candidates set up tents around the square and often hand out goodies and create fun stations for those that come by their tent.
Here are key dates and times this week: Miss Missouri’s Outstanding Teen and Miss Missouri Competition, Wednesday and Thursday, 7:30 p.m.; Miss Outstanding Teen Final and Miss Missouri Prelim, Friday, 7:30 p.m.; Miss Missouri Finals, Saturday, 7 p.m.
Tickets are available at the Mexico Area Chamber of Commerce and at the MMA Gymnatorium, where the event competition is held.
