Five darling young girls participated in the annual Miss Chiquitita pageant on Saturday, June 4th, at the Angel Nuñez Auditorium. They all hoped to capture the tiara and title of Miss Chiquitita 2016-2017 during the largest fundraiser for the San Pedro Pre- School. Shortly after 7PM, the pageant began with a dance, featuring contestants Carolina Salinas, Sandi Flores, Monique Garcia, Lindsey Williams, and Evelin Pichola.Lindsey Williams wins Miss Chiquitita 2016-14
