Miss Ludington Area Scholarship applications being accepted

The Miss Ludington Area Scholarship Program board of directors is accepting applications for Miss Ludington Area 2024, which will take place on Saturday, September 23 at the Ludington Area Center for the Arts at 2 p.m. Women ages 18 – 28 from Manistee,

Mason, Oceana, or Lake  counties, who either work, live or go to school in those counties are eligible to compete.

Contestants will take the stage to compete in talent, evening wear, on-stage interview and

demonstrate what health and lifestyle looks like for them while vying for the chance to win the title of Miss Ludington Area 2024 as well as earn scholarship money and awards.

“The Miss America Organization has a long standing tradition of being the largest scholarship

provider to young women in the world. The Miss America Opportunity format exemplifies empowering young women to be the very best they can be through leadership, talent, communication skills and intelligence.” said Shelby Soberalski, executive director. “This extends to no more swimsuit competition and more opportunities for voices and passions to be heard. Each young woman chooses a Community Service Impact Inititave that they care about to highlight to a broader audience and I couldn’t be more excited to see the organization move into this direction.” 

The Miss Ludington Area Scholarship Pageant is an official Miss Michigan and Miss America

preliminary. Miss Ludington Area represents Mason, Manistee, Oceana and Lake Counties.
