The Pageant File’s original vision was always to highlight the contestants and local titleholders who don’t advance to Miss America. After all, there is only one Miss America! Local titleholders are the heart of the Organization, and we rely on you to keep the heart beating. These lovely ladies competed for a local title and may not have walked away with the crown, but are still making an impact in their respective communities.
This list will be updated as more information is released.
