The Miss Woods Pageant

This is a special celebration of pride within The Woods Campground community. It gives our community an opportunity to celebrate the spirit of love and inclusiveness here at The Woods. It also allows us to find a queen who will represent that sense of connection for the upcoming year as an active and visible member of the camp community. The spirit of Miss Woods is to represent and promote the Campground with the dignity and pride we share as a camp community.
