The Greater Lake Placid Chamber of Commerce proudly crowned its 2026 Miss Lake Placid on Saturday evening. Congratulations to Ellisse Mills, who earned the title of 2026 Miss Lake Placid! Her court includes First Runner-Up Lilly Martin and Second Runner-Up Ava Caceras.
With nine talented local contestants competing, the judges certainly had a challenging task. We are confident that Ellisse will represent Lake Placid with grace and dedication throughout the coming year.
A heartfelt thank you to Taylor Bittner for her continued hard work and commitment as Pageant Director, and to Abigail Cunnane for her valued support this year. The Chamber also extends its sincere appreciation to State Farm Terri Conley for their generous sponsorship of scholarships over the past three years, as well as to all of the local businesses and community partners who help make this special event possible.
