Annual King and Queen Contest

About

The Annual King and Queen contest is one of the fundraising activities for the Emancipation Proclamation Association. The funds help to offset the cost of the organization’s goals and activities.  The Association’s main purpose is to keep the purpose of the Emancipation in the forefront of the community. The King and Queen contest allows young boys and girls to learn about Black History, visit historical sites, and learn about grace and proper decorum. 

Below are the participation forms needed to nominate a candidate from your church or organization. Please immediately complete the forms and return them to P.O Box 31365, Charleston, SC 29417.
