👑 Haley Shourd – Miss Southwest Arkansas 👑�

Haley showed up and showed OUT this past week at Miss Arkansas! Representing Southwest Arkansas, she made us all proud, finishing as the 2nd Runner-Up overall! Haley’s star power was undeniable, winning On-Stage Conversation and Talent Preliminaries for the Alpha group, Overall Private Interview, and Overall Talent for the entire Miss Arkansas class!

Her vocal performance of “My Man” was nothing short of show-stopping—a beautiful, emotional moment that left the audience in awe.

Haley has consistently embodied strength, elegance, and confidence, and last week was a celebration of all the hard work and heart she’s poured into this journey. Watching her evolve into the poised, passionate woman she is today has been an absolute joy. We are so grateful for her and the way she has honored her title. Southwest Arkansas will never forget this year with Haley at the helm. ❤️

🌟 Cadence Heath – Miss Southwest Arkansas' Teen 🌟

Cadence absolutely shone on the Miss Arkansas' Teen stage last week, and we couldn’t be more proud of how she represented Southwest Arkansas! From the moment she stepped on stage, she brought confidence, personality, and a whole lot of heart, leaving a lasting impression on everyone who had the pleasure of watching her.

Her on-stage conversation was a true standout. Cadence spoke with ease, authenticity, and warmth that had us all nodding along in admiration. Her lyrical dance to “Yes We Can” was a beautiful, moving performance that radiated strength and grace. And let’s talk about that custom blue velvet evening gown, pure elegance! She was a vision. 💙

Cadence has grown so much this past year, and it’s been such a joy to watch her blossom into a poised, passionate young woman who leads with kindness and confidence. We are endlessly grateful for her dedication, her heart, and the way she has carried the title of Miss Southwest Arkansas' Teen with pride. This is just the beginning, and we can’t wait to see where her journey takes her next!
