Eight Young Women Vie for Miss Saline Crown

Eight young women will compete in the Miss Saline Scholarship Pageant from 1-3 p.m., Aug. 10 at Saline Summerfest.

The pageant happens on stage in the parking lot that usually hosts the Saline Farmers Market.

The pageant winner receives a $2,000 scholarship. The first runner-up receives a $500 scholarship, and the second runner-up receives a $300 scholarship.

The court members spend the year volunteering at events around town and, among other things, run a Toys for Tots collection event.
