Miss Ritzville Miss Lind-Ritzville Program

(Formerly Lind-Ritzville Distinguished Young Women)

Welcome!

We would like to announce that the name of this page is changing to represent the current state of our local scholarship program for young female high school juniors. As in past years, we will continue to host a local program for young women to earn scholarship funds for higher education, however, at this time we are not affiliated with the National Distinguished Young Women Program. So what does

this mean for those looking to participate or support the program? The biggest change is that there will be no State or National Program to move on to after our local showcase. We will continue to reach out to local donors who have generously supported the program's scholarship categories in the past and all of that money will be directly passed on to the category winners. Also as in the past, participants will have the opportunity to represent the Lind-Ritzville community by riding a community float created by the Ritzville Festivals Association, along with acting as community ambassadors throughout their reigning year. We are excited to be able to continue to provide this valuable and empowering scholarship program for young women in our community and are looking forward to seeing it prosper for many years to come!

Good evening,

On behalf of our program, I’d like to extend heartfelt gratitude to the community for your unwavering support and love. Time and again, you have demonstrated your commitment to the scholarship program and the Ritzville Festivals Association. We were incredibly proud to witness our 2024 royalty serve at their last event, Piefest, this evening.

This year’s ambassadors have made a significant impact by participating in numerous community events, a business opening, and riding the "Moonlight Magic" float in 17 parades. The role these young women play in representing our community and the countless hours they dedicate to volunteer work is truly immeasurable. Ladies, you did an outstanding job!

Looking ahead, we will not have junior girls this year. However, the Ritzville Festivals Association has created an essay contest for eighth graders in the community to ride the float. We are excited to announce that there will be two ambassadors; one has volunteered with the RFA for the past two years and has found great joy in helping to build floats and participate in parades. We are so pleased that, despite the absence of Miss Ritzville participants, the RFA has found a way to continue our parades and promote our community.

Please take a moment to enjoy some photos I captured at the event this evening. We had a wonderful time filled with joy, a few tears, and an abundance of desserts at the auction!

With gratitude,

Kaylee Conrad
Director of Miss Ritzville and Festivals Volunteer
