If you are looking through the August or September issues of

Teen Vouge, Seventeen or Cosmo Girl magazines, look closely at the Mudd Jeans ads and see if there is any family resemblance to No. 4 Mine's Lee Durden.

Lee's 17 year-old daughter, Candace was picked from over 20,000 girls to be one of six Mudd Jeans Girls. The contest was based on an essay, photos and their community involvement. Mudd Jeans encourages teens to give back to their community and help others. Candace won a trip to New York for a photo shoot, a contract with Mudd jeans, a college scholarship and a donation to the charity of her choice. The pictures will run in ads for Mudd jeans through the fall and featured on the

website www.mymuddworld.com . Candace chose United Cerebral Palsy of West Alabama for her charity. She has volunteered at the UCP Fright Factory and as an office assistant volunteer with UCPWA. Candace got involved with UCPWA because she had a personal relationship with a family served by the agency. UCPWA received a financial donation from Mudd Jeans on behalf on Candace to recognize her contributions to the community.

Candace enjoys modeling and hopes to pursue this as a

career. She has been modeling most of her life and attends Hillcrest High School. She was recently picked to model in fashion week runway shows August 16-19 in Atlanta, Ga. Candace plans to attend The University of Alabama next year and major in criminal justice.

Lee started his career with JWR in 1987 and is Preparation Coordinator at No. 4 Mine. He also has a 19 year-old son, Jordan.
