Entry fees are $50 for each applicant.

Being a part of this official royal court is a big responsibility but is also a rewarding and enjoyable opportunity and experience.

Winners will travel to many places and meet a lot of interesting people, all while having fun and representing Gonzales, Texas.

Winners are chosen through a voting process that takes place the Saturday prior to Come and Take it Celebrations, with the winners scheduled to be announced on Saturday afternoon, October 1, during the celebration, itself.

We wish luck to all candidates and anticipate a lovely court filled with many qualified pageant winners.
