Last year's co-winners, Francis Mihm and Noah Lucy will have to bring their best to see if they can take down the tough competition of Aaron Locher, Andrew Grawe, Matt Fetzer, Tucker Mai, Calvin Collins, Jakob Kirman, and Noah Bullock. You should plan on attending to see which man will win!

The Man Pageant is Wednesday, February 17th at 7pm in the Auditorium; tickets are $5 or $3 with your stamped Renaissance card. All proceeds will go to ARK - a Dubuque-based nonprofit that provides an adaptive equipment lending library for people with special needs in our community.
