MISS CHAIN OF LAKES SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM
Miss Chain of Lakes and Miss Chain of Lakes' Outstanding Teen are official preliminary competitions for the
​Miss Minnesota and M
iss Minnesota's Outstanding Teen Scholarship Competitions, which are part of the
​Miss America and Miss America's Outstanding Teen Scholarship Organizations. 


The mission of the Miss Chain of Lakes Scholarship Program is to provide opportunities to further the education of Minnesota's young women and give back through community service. Not everyone can walk away with the crown, but everyone can walk away a changed individual.

Four Points of the Crown

Scholarship
The Miss Chain of Lakes Scholarship Program is an opportunity for young women to receive money to further their educational goals. We are a preliminary to the Miss Minnesota and Miss America pageants. The Miss America Organization is the leading scholarship provider for women in the world.

Service

To participate, each contestant must select a social cause as a platform which they present to the judges and to the community. Many contestants stay involved with their platforms long after competing, which is a great benefit to our society. In 2007, the Miss America Organization adopted a national platform, the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals, for which all Miss contestants are required to raise funds and awareness. This is the way to ensure that those participating in the program are service-oriented individuals who want to make a difference in our world.

Success
In addition to becoming knowledgeable about and involved with pertinent issues in today's society, contestants have a chance to learn public speaking and interview skills. In today's tough economic climate where jobs are limited, this experience is invaluable.

Style
Miss America began in 1921 simply as a “beauty pageant” but today we are looking for a real woman who's sense of style leaves a lasting, positive impression. Style is often the first thing people notice when meeting someone new so it is important that a young lady's outer choices reflect who she is as a whole person.
Miss Chain of Lakes/Miss Chain of Lakes' Teen, Miss Capital City/Miss Capital City's Teen,
and Miss Monarch/Miss Monarch's Teen are official preliminary competitions to
Miss Minnesota and Miss Minnesota's Teen
