Miss Montana USA and Miss Montana Teen USA 2017 will be crowned in Missoula on Sunday at 3pm. The Pageants NW team have been putting a lot of work into promotion on social media with contestants hosting takeover days like we had with Miss USA, and I am thrilled to see it is has paid off, with 21 contestants in the Miss division and 17 for Teen - that's the highest number of Miss contestants I have ever recorded and combined, the 38 contestants for this year is more than ten greater than recent years. Great to see such progress in Big Sky country! You can vote for Photogenic & People's Choice at the links above.
Most of this year's contestants are new to the USA system. In Miss, 2016 first runner-up Taylor Cook, semi-finalist Mary Hally and two-time California non-finalist Dani Walker are the only contestants who have competed previously. 2016 Teen first runner-up Madison Murray and second runner-up Elle Cook are back this year.
