Laurens County 4-H to Host the South Carolina Miss 4-H Pageant
January 23, 2022
The Laurens County 4-H Program will host the South Carolina Miss 4-H Pageant on Saturday, February 5th at Clinton High School.
The South Carolina Miss 4-H Pageant is not just a beauty pageant. 4-Her’s from across the state compete in four divisions: business attire, 4-H project wear, formal attire, and onstage question. Two of these divisions are aimed directly at 4-H. The 4-H project wear division allows the contestants to show off their 4-H project of choice and their passion. During the onstage question, contestants are asked age-appropriate questions about 4-H and/or their 4-H experience.
The older youth also participate in an interview that allows the judges to learn more about each contestant’s unique 4-H experience and how it has impacted their lives. The judges score the contestants on poise, stage presence, public speaking skills, personality, and confidence. 4-H involvement is also accounted into the score. The pageant is held annually in an effort to raise funds for the Laurens County 4-H Program. All funds raised will go to support 4-H clubs, programs, and leadership opportunities in Laurens County 4-H.
The event is open to the public and the community is encouraged to attend. The pageant will begin at 1:00 pm and doors open at 12:30. Tickets are $5.00 each and children under 3 years old enter for free.
