Our Local Entertainment Show showcases the talent of Jones County and surrounding areas. Whether you'll be singing, dancing, lip-syncing, acting, performing martial arts, playing an instrument, citing poetry, have a comedy act or other activities the stage is yours!
The aim of this pageant is to provide young women in North Carolina with a platform to showcase their talents, forge new friendships through friendly competition, and, above all, to enjoy themselves! We're excited to see the youth actively participate in festival activities and contribute to our heritage this year and in the years to come!
