Come out to the Chugiak High School Auditorium on Thursday, July 10 at 7 PM and cheer on our own local teens!  The Bear Paw Pageant is not your typical event!  Young men & women who are enrolled in grades 9 - 12 and who reside in this area compete in costume competition & personal interviews.  This is a pageant based on poise, creativity, friendliness and service to community. 

           Miss Bear Paw 2008 will receive a $1000 scholarship and a $500 scholarship will be awarded to the contestant who is selected with the most outstanding community service record.  Sleeping Lady Mountain Lions Club is providing both academic scholarships. 

           The Official escort will also receive a $1000 scholarship courtesy of the Chugiak-Eagle River Foundation.  

            Following the pageant, the 30 contestants participate in various festival events as a group providing an entire weekend of fun and community service credits.   Stay Tuned for the 2008 Applicants pictures on this site!
