Saturday, June 15, was a beautiful day in Gilbert. Fifty contestants competed for titles ranging from Master Peach birth to four years, all the way up to Miss Peach ages seventeen to twenty-three years. Entertainment was provided by The Academy of Lexington Youth Ballet and Meredith Price. Peaches, tiaras, trophies, and sashes were in abundance, and fun was had by all. Be sure to visit with our newly-crowned queens on July 4 at the festival’s Welcome Tent. See you on the 4th in Gilbert!
