Jefferson Davis County Miss Hospitality Ellen Porter recently selected her Jefferson Davis County Little Miss Hospitality that will accompany her at the state pageant in July.
Second grade student Joshlyn Sylvas was crowned last week at G. W. Carver Elementary. Sylvas is eight-years-old and is the daughter of Josh and Willetta Sylvas. She is a member of Shorts Chapel CME Church.. She loves to read, play softball, sing, play dress up and have fun with her siblings.
Sylvas wants to be a doctor when she grows up so she can help people all over the world feel better.
“Joshlyn is excited to serve as JDC Little Miss Hospitality so that she can be a positive role model for other little girls all across the county,” said Willetta Sylvas.
The Mississippi Miss Hospitality program added the Little Miss element in 2018. The Little Miss Program is designed for Miss Hospitality contestants to serve as mentors to young girls in their communities. Local Little Miss Hospitality representatives will perform during state competition in July and be recognized during the program’s livestream and in the program book.
The primary role of Little Misses will be to support and attend events in their hometown and receive mentoring by their Miss Hospitality “big sister.”
