MISS BETHESDA BIKINI CONTEST LAUNCHES JULY 11 AT HANARO LOUNGE

A bikini contest in Bethesda - that's not something you hear often. But for the first time, one woman will be crowned Miss Bethesda this summer at Hanaro Restaurant and Lounge, on Norfolk Avenue. The first annual Miss Bethesda Bikini Contest will open next Friday, July 11, with registration at 10:00 PM.

Registrants will compete in Round 1 starting at 11:30 PM that night. You can register or RSVP in advance by emailing Hanaro. 

The semifinals will be July 18, and the finals on July 25. When Miss Bethesda is chosen on the 25th, she will receive a $1000 cash prize.

There will be drink specials, a live DJ, and the kitchen will stay open until 1 AM. Patio seating is also available.

For the finals on the 25th, there will be celebrity judges and giveaways by liquor sponsors of the event. No word yet if I will be named a celebrity judge...
