Titleholders in Action: Johnson County Peach Festival 2025

Our Cycle 26 titleholders, newly crowned last weekend, hit the ground running at the 2025 Johnson County Peach Festival. The Miss Arkansas Valley & Johnson County Org's dynamic with the Peach Festival Association presents a unique opportunity for our titleholders and their involvement in the festival events each year.

Thursday evening, Miss Johnson County and a few of our local festival titleholders, enjoyed the annual Johnson County Idol competition. 

Friday was full of Downtown Events and entertainment. A few of them started the morning by presenting the Bicycle Obstacle Course awards, followed by judging the Peach Cobbler Bake-off. They ended the day at the Peach Fest Entertainment Stage enjoying live music from On The Verge. 

Saturday was filled with laughter and lifelong memories. Miss Johnson County, Emily, presented the National Anthem to start the 4 Mile Walk/Run. A record-breaking number of participants from all over the South faced the heat and humidity to conquer this in this event. Abi, Khloe and Phoebe started their day at Lake Ludwig, judging the annual Cardboard Boat Regatta.

Miss Arkansas 2025, Kennedy Holland, joined us for the popular Greased Pig Chase. Not only is this a community favorite, but it has also quickly become Festival Royalty tradition. Emily, Phoebe and Abi held the largest bullfrog in Johnson County, while Khloe stuck to a manageable toad.

Saturday afternoon was set aside for sponsors and photoshoots, and we ended the day with the annual Peach Festival Parade. It was a successful weekend at the longest running festival in the State of Arkansas!
