Organizers of the annual Miss Tecumseh Pageant have announced there will be another emotional passing of the crown in a virtual event to be held at the end of August 2021.

The last time the crown was passed on in 2019, Miss Tecumseh Suzie Sawicki placed it onto the head an emotional Miss Tecumseh Melina Svab. The pageant was cancelled last year due to the pandemic and Svab has held the crown for nearly two years.
