👑✨ 12 DAYS LEFT TO APPLY! ✨👑

The countdown is ON for the 2026 Magic of Christmas Parade Queen Contest! 🎄❤️ Applications are due September 30th, so don’t wait to get yours in!

One of our favorite parts of this contest is celebrating the incredible young women right here in our own community. We are continually amazed by their kindness, confidence, talents, dreams, and the bright futures ahead of them, and we would love the opportunity to cheer them on! ❤️

This is so much more than wearing a crown. 👑 It’s a chance to step outside your comfort zone, make new memories, represent your community, and become part of a special Magic of Christmas tradition. ✨

Know a young woman who needs that little push? Tag her, share this with her family, or simply tell her, “You should do this!” Sometimes that little vote of confidence is all it takes. 🥹❤️

📚 Must be a Junior or Senior at Salem High School
⏰ 12 DAYS LEFT!
