(ST. JOSEPH, Mo) Some area seniors had a day just for them at Stoney Creek.
The hotel played host to a pageant Friday afternoon.
Fourteen different seniors from as many different nursing homes from across the area took part in the day's festivities competing for the title of Pageant Queen for the district.

Organizers say the pageant has been a tradition for over 30 years now and remains a great way for seniors in their care to socialize with friends and family.

"They love this, they get to dress up everybody feels pretty today they're wearing their crowns," Kelly Summa, Administrator Worth Co. Care Center. "Their families come to watch them and we just have a lot of fun."

The winner of today's competition will go on to compete for the statewide pageant queen title in Branson.

We ended the weekend with pleasant weather today with sunshine and temperatures in the 60s. Tomorrow looks to be sunny as well with highs reaching the mid 50s. Another cold front is headed our way Monday evening and that will bring us a chance for rain and possibly some snow into Tuesday morning as the colder air surges into our area. After the cold front moves in on Tuesday, the high temperatures for the area will stay in the 50s and reach the 60s by the end of the week.
