About the Pageant
Pageant contestants are young ladies ages 8- 18. They are divided into three categories Juniors (ages 8-11) Showcase (ages 12-14) and Seniors (ages 15-18). Sessions begin in the month of February with workshops on etiquette, social skills, essay writing, public speaking, modeling, nutrition, proper attire, African American history and spirituality. Community service is also an integral part of the program.
The Delaware Juneteenth Association (DEJA) Family Enrichment Program was developed to accommodate the contestant’s families. In this program, families form a common bond that continues year after year. They participate in many wholesome activities to enhance their cultural awareness, while promoting education and healthy family values.
