Thirty-five contestants vying for a place on the Queen Victoria court stood before judges Saturday in a competition held within the 2021 Victoria Livestock Show.
The pageant was originally scheduled for Feb. 20, but was rescheduled for Saturday because of the winter storm the previous week.
After showcasing their Western and formal wear, five of the contestants were crowned and others were selected to join the 2021 court.

Where is the diversity? Were there no Hispanic, black, or Asian contestants? If not, I wonder why and if there is some sort of scholarships that can be raised to give these demographics a chance to win.
The article says there were 35 contestants, but only 7 are in the photo, not counting Brother Gary, so members of your listed demographics may well have participated. If so, they just didn't win. Diversity is as diversity does. If people participate in the "proper" ratios, then that's fine. If they don't that's fine too. We don't need to start trying to shape the numbers through special aids or quotas.
