CHILLICOTHE, Ohio — A little over a week ago, Autumn Kessler made history by becoming the first Miss Chillicothe in 20 years. She earned this honor after winning a local competition through the Miss Ohio Scholarship Program and Miss America Organization.
As she prepares for the Miss Ohio competition, Kessler is selling ad pages in the Official Miss Ohio Program Book. This historical collector’s item is distributed to the audience filling the 2,500 seats of the Renaissance Theatre in Mansfield, Ohio, during the four nights of the Miss Ohio and Miss Ohio’s Teen competition.
Kessler, in a statement to the Guardian, said, “I would love to have the support of the Chillicothe Community and local businesses as the Miss Chillicothe organization is revived and returns to the Miss Ohio Stage!”
