PROVO — A fond farewell was bid to Miss Utah Stacy Johnson Tuesday night.
Provo Mayor Lewis K. Billings and other local officials saluted Johnson, who leaves in the coming weeks for Atlantic City, N.J., where she will compete in the 2003 Miss America Competition.
Johnson, who served as Miss Provo before winning the Miss Utah crown, will compete in the preliminary rounds, Sept. 16-18. If she makes it to the final round, she will compete for the national crown during the Sept. 20 telecast.
