MISS TEXAS
Miss Texas Organization
An official preliminary to the Miss America Scholarship Pageant, the Miss Texas Pageant, Inc. has a rich history of empowering young women to achieve their dreams and goals. Larger than the young women who have held the title of Miss Texas is the volunteer team and “pageant family” who have dedicated their lives to ensure these young women have every opportunity available to them through this transformational pageant system.
Rosalyn Huff competed for Miss Texas July 2, 2016 in Richardson, Texas. She was awarded a generous scholarship from the Miss Texas Organization.
“I am a princess. All girls are...even if they aren't pretty smart or young, they're still princesses - All of us!”
