As usual, the Beaver Queen Pageant was a massive hit in 2019. The 15th annual pageant celebrated diversity and frivolity, with a uniquely Durham mix of all colors and all ages.
The Beaver Queen is a fundraiser to support the Ellerbee Creek Watershed Association.
Fabulous freelance photographer Chrystal Kelly was on-hand to capture the sights and scenes.
