Welcome Big/Littles!
For the 2026 State Pageant, you can register for the city queen title and participate in the agHERsisterhood program. We welcome you to join our state queen court and become eligible to compete at the State Pageant.
What state title will I receive?
Queen titles are awarded "first come, first serve" through registration. If the age division title is being represented by another queen, then additional titles can be claimed.
Each age division can only be represented by three individuals. Once full, then the individual can choose to represent another city or wait until the following year.
