Miss Connecticut Send-off

The Woodbridge Country Club was packed with fans of Miss Connecticut Dana Daunis on Sunday. Her wardrobe was fantastic, as was her Miss America talent, which brought tears to the eyes of audience members. Kudos to Tracy Forbes and the Fairfield team for a top-notch event! The entertainment by Miss New Haven County Ashley Abate and teen contestant Alyssa Taglia were great too. Dana received kudos from Attorney General Richard Blumenthal, and praise was heaped on Miss Connecticut wardrobe sponsor Natalie Testa, Nanette Bosch from Bangle & Clutch, Maria Neves of The Crowning Touch and Mike Massaro from The Clothes Clinic. Kelly Hughson Tindall, a former state runner-up, was in the audience. Kelly and her husband gave money toward Dana’s wardrobe and Kelly had a few words to share. Kelly said that getting involved in the system again brought back “so many memories. I got so much out of it.” Her advice to young women is to stay involved in the Miss CT program because of the friendships and and skills you gain.
