Melanie Eustaquio - THE FIRST Miss Junior BC 2017 Pageant Winner
Melarie Joy Eustaquio , a
12 year old from Coquitlam,
was the very first crowned Miss
Junior BC Pageant 2017.
It was the first year where
they have opened a spot for
pre teens to compete for a
title & shine their talents.
This took place on
July 3rd where they have
attended judges interview and
workshops a few days before.
Melarie is an active
competitive tap dancer for
four years now. She has
wowed the judges by her
talent, authenticity, humility,
passion to serve girls that are
younger than her & her big
dreams in one day becoming
a real estate developer.
Her biggest role model
is her big sister Melquea, who
has supported her throughout
this competition and was the
one who has pushed her to
join. Her Big sister was very
proud of her as she states
“Her WIN is my WIN!”
The crown may have
been well earned in one night,
but the process of her family
sowing greatness in her took
her whole life time to build.
Through
out
this
journey her
greatest
desire was
to
build
her
self-
confidence, display leadership
in a young age, & simply bring
Glory to God!
You can watch her in
this year’s pageant airing on
SHAW TV in September, or
watch Melarie’s Pageant Vlog

This is only the
beginning for Melarie, as
she continues to grow in
more drive as she looks up
to a promising future!
