Each year, a young woman earns the title of Miss Greater Watertown as well as scholarship funds that can help further her education. She is also entitled to enter the Miss Connecticut pageant.

Beyond providing scholarships for young women to continue their education, the Miss Connecticut Scholarship Program encourages the development of talent, physical fitness, poise, speaking skills and community service. The talent phase of competition comprises 30% of a contestant's final score, while the personal interview is worth 40%. Each contestant is also required to present an issue of concern related to community service, such as breast cancer awareness, literacy, or support for the arts education.

As you can see, the scholarship money awarded through the Miss Greater Watertown Scholarship Program goes to talented, well-rounded individuals.

Young women between the ages of 17 and 24 develop a talent and enter the pageant program. The practice and pageant rehearsals take place weekly for about two months before the show. During which time, other aspects of the competition are encouraged.

Miss Greater Watertown contestants may work, go to school or live in the following towns:   Watertown, Oakville, Thomaston, Washington Depot, Newtown, Southbury, Woodbury, Bethlehem, Middlebury, Morris, Lakeside and Roxbury.
