A History of Our Titleholders

This year, we took the first step to expand Community 365 beyond Winthrop Harbor to incude neighboring communities that form the Cornerstone of Illinois.

2021/2022

Mid Year, our titles switched from 2021 to 2022 because we officially became a Festival Pageant affiliated with the Miss Illinois Scholarship Organization. Our title years switched to be in line with their system.

Rebecca Ogg became the first contestant to walk the Miss Illinois Stage as Miss Winthrop Harbor.

2020

Our first year as a pageant. From a field of thirteen young ladies, Makara Heiny, Isabella Rodriguez, Delaney McCarthy, and Charlotte McDonald were selected to be our very first titleholders. It was a different year due to covid, but the girls overcame and served our community well forming lifelong bonds and friendships.
