The Pageant is in existence solely to promote the Music & Blossom Festival. The pageant's mission is to teach young women the values of pageantry, and to give our time honored festival royalty to reign over our festivities. The Blossom Pageant offers much more than a rhinestone tiara, sash and a title. It allows the young women in our community to practice hands on interview skills necessary for the future, gives them the opportunity to work on their public speaking abilities, teahces them to be comfortable in their own skin by boosting their self-confidence, and makes memories to last a lifetime.
