    “The purpose of the Miss Florida Forestry Pageant is to provide scholarships for Florida’s outstanding young ladies while promoting Florida’s forestry industry. The pageant was open to any contestant who resides, works or attends school in Taylor County, or an adjacent county. We are looking for well-rounded young ladies who will be able to represent the county’s forestry industry at the state pageant and throughout the year at various events,” Coordinator Mandy Cornelius said.
