Texas College alumna Tammy Arterberry recently competed in the America’s Majestic Miss Texas Pageant alongside her daughter Amanda Mack, a Texas College student, and granddaughter Jayla Gross. The contestants were scored on three categories: interview, majestic wear and formal wear. Candidates for the crowns, ranging in age from three to 65, promote different organizations and causes, as well as partake in community service opportunities.

“America’s Majestic Miss is a natural beauty pageant that teaches girls to be confident in who they are and to inspire others,” Tamara Young, pageant coordinator for Texas, said. “No matter how small you are or how old you are, you can impact your community.” Arterberry was crowned Ms. Texas at the America’s Majestic Miss Pageant in Tyler. Her crowning places her as one of 11 contestants who will now advance to the national pageant in Nashville slated for June 24 - 27, 2021. In addition to her crown, Arterberry also won the Texas All American Majestic Miss Award, awarded to the contestant with the highest overall score in the pageant.
