This year's Juneteenth Pageant will focus on children in Elementary School and Middle School. We are looking for children to be Ambassadors for the Juneteenth pageant. Each winner will receive a title, sash, and crown/tiara to keep for the year. We want each winner to either represent at their school or neighborhood and share why Juneteenth is important to them. During the year of their reign, they will be asked to attend at least one community council meeting to share the importance of Juneteenth with the community and legislators.

 

Get ready to hit the stage at Juneteenth on Saturday, June 15th at 2: 45 pm (please arrive at 2:20 pm)
