Miss Lake Chelan to be selected March 9

CHELAN - The 93rd Annual Miss Lake Chelan Scholarship Program is planned for Saturday, March 9 at 7 p.m. in the Chelan High School PAC.  The current royalty, Miss Lake Chelan Lucy Bordner and Princess Rosa Lopez, as well as many community volunteers, help to create a memorable pageant program.  

The theme this year is “Life is Sweet in Lake Chelan” featuring some “sweet music”, dances from the 50’s, and a candy and soda shop motif.  This program will be one to enjoy.

We have eight young ladies from Chelan High School participating.  Each of these young women are Juniors and have been preparing for weeks for this program.  They have dance lessons, fitness routines, talent performances and question prep not to mention, regular class homework, extra-curricular activities, and home responsibilities. They are busy. We are impressed with the talent and tenacity of these girls.

Each of the girls participate in hopes of garnering scholarship dollars for college but more importantly, to challenge themselves to be more confident, well-rounded leaders.  Through the program, they learn how to address challenges, how to push themselves to do things they thought impossible, and work together to build each other up.  It is truly a growing experience. With help from the MLC team, the candidates gain skills, motivation, graceful empowerment and confidence to go out and conquer the world. We also hope they will return to valley after their education and share their talents with our community at some time.  

The program rewards these young ladies with over $8,000 in scholarships.  

Tickets will be available for pre-sale at the Lake Chelan Chamber on March 1-8.  Door sales available until seats are full so get your tickets early.  Adults are $12 and students $6.  All funds go toward the MLC program and scholarships. The pageant is always a fun and entertaining event for everyone.    

Miss Lake Chelan has a presence on Facebook, Instragram, and a new website, www.misslakechelan.com.
