POULSBO — As the current Miss Poulsbo Brenna Gardner-Brown prepares to end her reign, she’ll do it with a little bit of rock and a whole lot of roll — in Vegas style to be exact.

Six contestants will vie for the title at the 53rd Miss Poulsbo Pageant at the Bremerton High School Performing Arts Center. It begins at 6 p.m. March 24, but for the winner, a journey also begins as the crown carries with it the opportunity to compete in the Miss Washington Pageant.

The young women will take the stage with 11 Miss Kitsap contestants for their share of more than $25,000 in scholarship money from the Miss Poulsbo Organization.
