Welcome to the 3nd Annual Miss Pennsylvania’s Princess & Pre-teen Pageant. This year’s pageant will take place on Saturday, October 4th, 2014, in King of Prussia, PA, at the Upper Merion Middle School. The Miss Pennsylvania Scholarship Organization is part of the Miss America Organization. Over the last 10 years, we have found that the Miss Pennsylvania’s Outstanding Teen Organization has become a great feeder program for the Miss Pennsylvania Scholarship Organization. We hope that the Princess and Pre-Teen Pageant will help introduce young girls to the Miss America System in a friendly, relaxing and encouraging environment. It is our hope that the young girls taking part in the Miss Pennsylvania’s Princess and Pre-teen Pageant will aspire to go on to become Miss Pennsylvania’s Outstanding Teen and eventually, Miss Pennsylvania. We are looking for two young ambassadors for the Miss Pennsylvania Organization to help promote our organization throughout the state at appearances and events. The Miss Pennsylvania’s Princess and Pre-Teen Pageant entry fees will go directly to college scholarships for our Miss Pennsylvania and Miss Pennsylvania’s Outstanding Teen contestants.
