The Southern California Fair is excited to announce the 2009 Farmers Daughters Scholarship Program. This program is available to all girls in Riverside County ages 16-19 as of October 1st 2009. Our goal is to combine tradition with updated fun, giving girls the chance to be treated like royalty while representing the fair!
You do not have to be an actual daughter of a farmer to participate in this thrilling program. Any girl ready to have fun while earning scholarship money qualifies. The Farmers Daughters Scholarship Program has been available for decades, and now we are throwing some modernized excitement into the mix. In the months leading up to the fair, the girls (with fair chaperone) will participate in a number of great outings as a group where they will meet new people and be treated like queens. Some of these events include parades, charity events, and festivals. But the first and the most exciting, is when the girls go Shopping! The girls will get to go shopping with the chaperone to get FREE clothes to wear during the competition, AND afterwards they get to keep them!
During fairtime the girls will compete in fun contests such as, sewing, goat milking, tractor driving and more, not to mention the mystery contests we throw in just to make it really interesting! Mystery Contests, in the past have included, “Craziest Hair” and “Extreme Makeover” where the families get involved. The girls earn points for their application, interview, participation, and fair-time contests. All of the finalists will receive a scholarship ranging from $500.00-$1250.00.
So if you are, or know an outgoing and goal driven young lady aged 16-19 in Riverside County, this is a great opportunity to have fun, meet lifelong friends, get new clothes, free admission and food everyday at the fair, and much more! All while earning scholarship money for your future college careers!
