The annual May Day Festival involves children from preschool through high school in fundraising, community involvement, and creative performance. The May Day Queens’ races center around a fundraising competition between girls in two different age brackets. Tenth grade girls compete for the title of May Day Queen and and girls of kindergarten age compete for the title of Tiny Queen. The application window for the 2026 court has closed.
Votes are cast for each candidate by contributing to her fundraising campaign. Collection boxes are placed at the candidates’ sponsoring merchants in the local community. These merchants graciously help with May Day every year by hosting the queen candidates’ collection boxes.
Voting for candidates selected to compete in 2026 will be featured by April 4, 2026 for online voting through noon on April 24, 2026.
June Martin, May Queen candidate and current OCC member.
