Quayana Hetymia, who represented the community of Weldaad in Region Five (Mahaica- Berbice) is now Miss Regional Division Five Police Scout Queen. At a pageant held last Saturday at the Mahaicony Technical Institute, the newly crowned queen also won the Miss Congeniality prize.

According to a statement on the Guyana Police Force Facebook page, Quayana was one of the seven young women who competed, representing various communities in Regional Division Five. They were judged on their posture, poise, portrayal of elegance, tone, confidence, stage space, pronunciation and enunciation, proper use of grammar, and most importantly the way they responded about if they were to be crowned queen.
