Miss Arizona

These Ladies Are Winners

By Judy Hedding, About.com

Each year, at the end of June, one very talented and bright young lady is chosen to be Miss Arizona for the year. Along with that honor and the responsibilities of the position, comes the opportunity to compete for the title of Miss America that following September.

The Miss Arizona Pageant is much more than a beauty contest. It is a way for many Arizona women to obtain scholarship monies to further their educations. It is also important in that it helps develop awareness for many worthy causes that the organization, and the young ladies themselves, support.

Here are profiles of some of the recent winners of the Miss Arizona Pageant:
