Accepting Applications for Ms. Wheelchair Maryland 2009

November 2008 at the Double Tree Hotel in Bethesda, MD

Ms. Wheelchair Maryland (MW-MD) is a non-profit, non-partisan organization managed under the auspices of Dateable, Inc. The goal of the Ms. Wheelchair Maryland, and Junior Miss Wheelchair Maryland is to select two spokeswomen to represent the disability community at large. 

As Ms. and Junior Miss Wheelchair Maryland you lead by example. During your reign you will strengthen public perception toward disability, serve as a mentor to others, and demonstrate how the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) benefits all Americans.

Whomever wears the Ms. Wheelchair Maryland crown will also shine on a national stage as she contends for the title of Ms. Wheelchair America.   The next Ms. Wheelchair America pageant takes place on July 2008.

Contestants must meet the following criteria:

  1. A Maryland Resident between the ages of 21 and 60*
  2. Utilize a wheelchair for 100% daily community mobility
  3. Marital status is not a factor

*or between ages 14-20 for Junior Miss

Entry fees are charged for each contestant. Fees may be paid by the contestant or by sponsors a contestant may solicit. Contestants are judged on their accomplishments, self perception, communication and projection skills through personal interviews, and platform speech presentations.

We are currently repairing our on-line application form. This should be fixed soon.
