affair is the coronation night of Miss Lipa Tourism 2019 which took place at
The Outlets at Lipa grounds last June 17, 2019 which was three days before the
exact day of the anniversary. Seventeen young ladies coming from different
parts of the City for All Seasons have brightened up the night sky with their beauty,
talent and prestige in hopes of representing and promoting one of the most progressive
cities in Southern Luzon today.
After a series of festivities and deliberations, Bea Gamboa Ramirez of
Barangay Banay-Banay shined above all as she was crowned Miss Lipa Tourism 2019
while Rachel Dimaculangan and Joanne de Leon were hailed as first and second
runners-up respectively. With Miss Lipa Tourism 2019 regarded as a huge
success, the Lipa City Tourism Council under its current president Minnie
Atienza will continue to exert efforts in promoting the city as a lifestyle hub
and furthermore help in bringing it back to its former glory on the start of
the city's new era under its newly-elected mayor Eric Africa.
