Frequently Asked Questions

  • Due to logistical constraints, such as the size of the auditorium stage, dressing areas, length of production, and the amount of time it takes to conduct contestant interviews, the Miss Polk County Scholarship Organization limits the number of overall contestants we can reasonably accommodate to 30.

  • The 2027 Miss Polk County Scholarship Pageant will be held on Saturday, January 30, 2027, at 6:00 PM at the Florence Crosby Auditorium in Livingston, Texas. This year, we celebrate our 50th anniversary!

  • All Miss Polk County contestants are required to be sponsored by a local non-profit organization. Sponsors cannot be a business, individual, or government entity. Examples of sponsors include non-profit community organizations, church groups, and school clubs/teams/organizations. All sponsors must be local to Polk County, Texas. Sponsors are not obligated to pay the contestant’s $150 entry fee, but may do so if they choose. If the sponsoring organization chooses not to cover the entry fee, it is the responsibility of the contestant to ensure the entry fee is paid.

    This does not apply to Junior Miss Polk County contestants, who do not require a sponsor.
