Former Miss Nanaimo hoping for provincial spotlight
NANAIMO — A former Miss Nanaimo is now a candidate for Miss BC.
Krista-Lee Spivey, a VIU nursing student, was crowned Miss Nanaimo in October 2015. When the next winner was crowned the following year, Spivey said she knew her time helping the community wasn’t finished.
“I realized I didn’t want to stop, I was having a lot of fun,” she said. “I thought why not, I’ve got nothing to lose, might as well see if I can make it to the next level.”
Making it to the next level involves being a candidate for four months, taking part in local events, volunteering and preparing two speeches.
