The Miss Auburn Scholarship program this week announced open recruitment for contestants of the Miss Auburn and Auburn’s Outstanding Teen pageant.

The program provided more than $50,000 in scholarships last year to young women in the Auburn community to help further their educational goals, and enhance their development in talent and interview skills.

The program also encourages mentorship through being a Little Sister to a Miss Contestant or Little Princess to a Teen contestant. They will share in the fun of appearances in parades and other events and also learn a dance number to showcase on stage pageant night.
