Miss Oregon Pageant
The Miss Oregon Scholarship Program is an official preliminary to the Miss America Pageant. They are a nonprofit organization run by volunteers whose mission is to empower Oregon’s young women to achieve their personal and professional goals, while providing a forum in which to express their opinions, talent, and intelligence.
The first Miss Oregon Pageant was held in 1947 in Seaside. In the last 20 years they have offered over $1,500,000.00 in cash and in-kind tuition scholarships to the young ladies participating as contestants in this program.
The Miss America Organization is the world’s largest provider of scholarship assistance for young women. Last year, the Miss America Organization and its state and local organizations made available more than $45 million in cash and in-kind tuition scholarships.
The winner of the Miss Oregon Pageant advances to compete at the Miss America Pageant in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The first Miss America Pageant was held in Atlantic City in 1921.
The Miss Oregon Parade will begin at 2:00pm on Saturday, July 2, 2016.
