Background

In March 1987, both El Paso County and the El Paso City Council voted to support a bid to host Miss Teen USA 1987, each contributing an equal share of the financial backing. [2] [3] El Paso provided over 300 volunteers, 3,000 hotel room nights, and $150,000 in funding to facilitate the event [4] The expected return on their investment included 15 minutes of promotional footage of the El Paso area, broadcast to over 80 million viewers throughout the United States. [5]

Richard Guy and Rex Holt, directors of the Miss Texas USA pageant at the time, were involved in bringing the pageant to El Paso and organising the event. [6] [7]

Event

A state 'gift' auction, featuring items donated by contestants from each state, along with a state costume competition, collectively raised over $3,800 for charities in El Paso. [8] The state costume competition was won by Juli Hodges, Miss Arizona Teen USA, who appeared dressed as a gold thunderbird. [8] [9] Second place was Miss California Teen USA Angie Aylor and third place was Miss South Carolina Teen USA Carol Carver. [9]

For the first time in the history of the Miss Teen USA pageant, the Miss Photogenic award resulted in a tie, with Raye-Anne Johnson of Rhode Island and Angie Aylor of California sharing the honor. [10]

Actress Stephanie Kramer was due to host the pageant alongside Michael Young but had to withdraw due to an inner ear infection; Tracy Scoggins was brought in to replace her. [11]
