For decades now, the Miss Wagga Quest has been providing an environment for entrants to challenge themselves, to build confidence, network, up-skill and to make a contribution to the community.

The Quest is more than a competition. It is a call to action and an opportunity to award successful, driven women, who have  given up hours of their time, to serve, grow and to lead.

I have no doubt both Miss Wagga Wagga 2019 Stina Constantine and Miss Community Princess Presslea Cowan will go on to be ambassadors for Wagga, leading the next generation of young women down a path of success.

They have worked hard to achieve their goals and I congratulate them both.
