A local girl who graduated from Fort Bragg high school, loves the community, Photography the welfare of children education and her fur baby. She is excited to see the growth happening here and hopes younger families can make their homes here.

The Belle of the Redwoods competition is nearly as old as Paul Bunyan Days itself and has become a favorite tradition of the residents of Fort Bragg! It is not a beauty contest. Contestants compete by dressing in “old fashioned” or theme appropriate dress and selling raffle tickets.

Each Belle contestant earns 10% of her ticket sales, and the top 3 Belle contestants also win cash bonuses!

The proceeds from the sale of the raffle tickets benefits the Paul Bunyan Scholarship which is awarded to a Mendocino Coast local pursuing higher education in Forestry or Logging associated fields. 

If you’d like to support our Belle’s please find one and buy a ticket! Each ticket costs only $5 or buy 5 tickets for $20!
