Laurens County Forestry Scholarship Pageant
Dublin, Georgia
Brandi Taylor / Director
Brandi Taylor has been appointed the Laurens County Forestry Scholarship Pageant Director for Laurens County by the Georgia
Forestry Pageant and Educational Association, Inc. The pageant will be held in Laurens County on March 18, 2006. The Georgia
Forestry Pageant is the oldest Scholarship Pageant in the State of Georgia going into the 67th year. The Miss Georgia Forestry
Pageants give over $120,000.00 yearly in cash and college scholarships on the local and state levels. The winners of the Laurens
County Forestry Pageant will receive their entry fees paid to the 67th Miss Georgia Forestry Pageant to represent Laurens
County. The County Queens are treated like true royalty at the Miss Georgia Forestry State Pageant. The girls are escorted
to the pageant by limousine, they participate in a parade with their county and title on their car, they are treated to cookouts,
treefarm tours, and many more events. This year a formal ball will be held for the Miss contestants. The Miss Georgia Forestry
receives besides the scholarship, all her expenses paid to travel the State in promoting Forestry, she is paid for her appearances,
the official round Miss Georgia Forestry crown, rhinestone studded banner, official Miss Georgia Forestry pin, official Miss
Georgia Forestry diamond and emerald ring, silver engraved tray, flowers, picture and interview in five national magazines,
and gifts totaling over $2,000.00. The Queens will also have the opportunity to compete in the Miss US National Forestry Pageant.
The younger girls receive the official Miss Georgia Forestry crown, rhinestone studded banner, official crowning pin, silver
engraved tray, flowers, scholarships, bicycles, stereos, gifts totaling over $2,000.00 and their picture and interviewed by
five national magazines. The Miss Georgia Forestry Queens have the opportunity to ride on the Georgia Forestry float with
Smokey Bear serving as Ambassadors to the Georgia Forestry Commission. The Miss Georgia Forestry Pageant was started in 1940
to offer educational opportunities to young ladies while promoting Georgias Number One Industry, Forestry. The Laurens County
Queens will be responsible for promoting Forestry for Laurens County. We do allow the Forestry Queens to compete and win other
pageants as long as they promote their Forestry titles. The pageant will be open to young ladies ages three to 23 years. The
younger girls pageants are open to all surrounding counties. Contestants in the Miss Division must work, reside, or attend
school or college in Laurens County. The Forestry Pageant closes the Miss Division to the county the pageant is being held
in because we feel that it is important for a local girl to win the Local Forestry Scholarship. The younger girls are judged
a 1 to 10 on poise, beauty, gown, personality, and overall appearance. The Teen and Miss are judged on interview, platform,
and evening gown. Mrs. Taylor brings over ten years of pageant experience to the Laurens County Forestry Pageant. Mrs. Taylor
also attended the Georgia Forestry Pageants Judges workshop and is a certified judge. For more information contact Brandi
