The Miss Chattooga County Pageant 2026 will be held on Saturday, March 28 at 3:00 p.m. at Chattooga High School in the auditorium/cafeteria. Organizers are encouraging contestants to register early and take advantage of the discounted entry fee.

The early registration deadline is March 20 at 11:59 p.m., with an entry fee of $40. Participants who register before that deadline will save $10 compared to the late registration fee. Late registration will remain open until March 26 at 6:00 p.m., with a fee of $50.

Contestants must either live in Chattooga County or attend a school in Chattooga County to be eligible to participate. Reigning winners may not compete in the same category the following year but may enter the next category if their age allows them to move up.

Those interested in entering can complete the application online at https://forms.gle/gFvWcpHQZp3mMdqo8 or by scanning the QR code included on the pageant flyer. Anyone with questions can contact Sandy Blalock at sblalock@chattooga.k12.ga.us.
