The Montgomery Area Community Club announces this year’s candidates for the Kolacky Days Queen Pageant on Sunday, April 28.
The candidates are Josephine Hatlevig, daughter of Travis and Nadine Hatlevig; Alyson Hennen, daughter of Allen and Laura Hennen; Sophie Franek, daughter of Dave and Marsha Franek; Brooke Holicky, daughter of Krystal Hamele and Nick Holicky; and Victoria Soukup, daughter of Denise Wondra and David Soukup.
The girls and their parents/guardians attended an informational meeting at St. John Lutheran Church where they signed their intent to be a candidate, heard rules and regulations for being a candidate and royalty, received the required 50 Kolacky Buttons to sell, and received the schedule of candidate events.
The Kolacky Days ambassadors receive their scholarships after they successfully finish their year of required appearances and one semester of post-secondary education. The scholarship totals remain the same as last year: Queen $2,500, First Princess $2,000, Second Princess $1,500, Miss Congeniality $1,000.
To qualify as a candidate for the pageant, students must be females in good standing in the Tri-City United School District. They must live within a given radius of Montgomery and Kilkenny. However, if they live outside the radius, they can petition the community club for approval.
The royal court is responsible for attending more than 15 parades throughout the area as well as community events and appearances.
