What an incredible day we had at the 2025 Miss Cannon County Pageant! 💖
First, I want to thank each of our contestants and their parents for trusting us with your time and energy. You all shined so beautifully on stage, and I am so proud of every single one of you. To my reigning queens—thank you for representing Miss Cannon County with such grace this year. And to our brand-new queens—congratulations! Your journey is just beginning, and I can’t wait to see all that you accomplish. 👑
I am beyond proud to share that together, our contestants collected and donated over 1,600 products to Darley’s Hope Project and Britta’s Ballerinas. This generosity shows the true heart of our community and proves that pageantry is about so much more than a crown. 💕
A huge thank you to our venue, Cannon County Middle School, for hosting us. To Brock Francis with Perfect Pageant for handling all of our scoring and tallying software—thank you for keeping everything running smoothly. To Shawni Francis and Kacey Oliver, your backstage support was invaluable, and I could not have done it without you.
To our pristine panel of judges, who had the toughest job of the day we thank you so much! 
A very special thank you to Tammy McCormick for stepping in as our emcee at the last minute after my unexpected mouth surgery—you were truly a lifesaver, and I am so grateful. And to my mom, Missy Smotherman—thank you for catering lunch for our staff and judges and for stepping in wherever needed throughout the day. Your love and support mean so much. 💗
It takes a village to put on an event like this, and I am blessed with the best one. Thank you again to everyone who helped make the 2025 Miss Cannon County Pageant a success. 🌟
