welcome
It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to the 29th Anniversary of the Little Miss Buford and Miss Sweetheart of Georgia Pageant! Each year we come together to support and empower these young ladies as they develop life-time skills of poise and self-confidence. Often times, we celebrate with them as they conquer fears and learn what it truly means to perform under pressure. Confidence breeds beauty and we want each young lady to know that she can make a difference in her life and the lives of others through positive pageantry.
The pageant also serves as a fundraiser for the Buford High School Band of Wolves music program. The monies raised assists in purchases of new equipment, repairs of current equipment and uniforms, new music, and travel expenses for competitions.
Thank you to all of the 2022 delegates, their supportive parents and families, as well as to the many individuals and businesses who have generously sponsored these young ladies and offer continual support to the band. You are making a positive impact and lasting impression on our community and in the lives of our children. You are truly appreciated!
Today’s event will proceed with:
• Presentation of delegates by their age division
• Recognition and crowning of Ambassadors, Winners of Prettiest Smile/Prettiest Hair/ Prettiest Dress, Most Photogenic, Interview, Royalty Awards, and Runner-Ups
• Crowning and introduction of the 2022 Miss Buford and Miss Sweetheart of Georgia Queens
After the conclusion of each division, delegates and queens will move into the backstage area for photographs.
Queens are asked to stay for their group photograph. Instructions will be given backstage after the completion of the crowning.
You are welcome to stay throughout the day to view other divisions. Again, thank you for entrusting your daughter, granddaughter, niece, and friend with us. Our hope is that you and your family enjoy the day and remember, “It’s not just about the beauty, it’s about the experience!”
