US American Miss
Pennsylvania
"The Crown of an Infinite Journey"
At US American Miss Pennsylvania, we want to expand the lives of young women through an amazing pageant journey. We want our delegates to truly feel like family from competing at the state pageant, to their crowing moment. This entire journey is about YOU, and we want to provide you the best pageant experience possible. We want our girls to not only have the time of their life at the State Pageant but make memories and sister that will last a lifetime. US American Miss Pennsylvania and New Jersey prides itself on being one of the fastest growing pageant systems in Pennsylvania
