The numbers are in and we are so thrilled to say we will have ‼️46‼️ beautiful contestants competing this weekend! We are over the moon to have such a great turnout after a 2 year hiatus!

With that being said, we weren’t anticipating having this many contestants, so please bear with us as we will probably be running a little behind throughout the day. It’s a GREAT problem and we are just going to roll with it! 😍

Make plans to come cheer on these young ladies this weekend! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

🚨Schedule and Information🚨

This is the schedule of events for the pageants and talent show this weekend! Here is some information that you need to know ⬇️

• Talent contestants will be competing before crowning in the Toddler Miss & Tiny Miss categories. Talent contestants should be back stage at 12:15 ready to perform.

• Contestants must arrive backstage STAGE READY 15 minutes before your scheduled time. Please do not arrive earlier.

• Crowning will immediately follow each age division in 13 & younger. After the Pr***en Miss is crowned, there will be an award presented for the highest scoring contestant in ages 13 & younger. If you win a title, you’ll be eligible for this award.

• Each contestant and one chaperone will be allowed backstage. It is a very tight space with minimal amenities.

• All contestants and chaperones must conduct themselves in a positive manner. Bad sportsmanship is not allowed and will result in disqualification.

• The newly crowned queens will be asked to stay and introduce themselves at the Fair Princess and Miss pageants.

• The new queens will also be invited to attend the rodeo for their first “appearance” beginning at 6pm after the Fair Princess and Miss crowning.

• Anyone receiving cash prizes will be asked to reach out to the sponsor of said prize to personally thank them. Posting on social media to recognize the sponsor would also be greatly appreciated.
