The Miss Dogwood Queen holds a cherished place in our community, serving as a role model, ambassador, and shining example of what leadership and service truly look like. Representing the Miss Dogwood USA Pageant, our Queen dedicates her year to promoting confidence, scholarship, and community involvement across the Lake of the Ozarks area.

From volunteering at local events and supporting charitable causes to appearing at festivals, schools, and community programs, the Miss Dogwood Queen embodies the spirit of kindness, integrity, and dedication. She serves not only as a representative of the long-standing Dogwood Festival tradition—now celebrating its 76th year—but also as a positive influence on younger generations.

Her role extends far beyond the crown. The Miss Dogwood Queen inspires others to dream boldly, serve wholeheartedly, and make a meaningful impact. We are proud to celebrate her contributions and the lasting impact she has on the lives she touches.
