The 1947 Club
Since 1947, Miss Oregon has been part of the fabric of Seaside and the lives of young women across our state. The 1947 Club honors that legacy and celebrates JoAnne Amorde Berg, the first Miss Oregon, whose trailblazing year began a tradition that continues nearly eight decades later.

Why 1947?
1947 marks the beginning of Miss Oregon in Seaside and the crowning of JoAnne Amorde Berg as the first Miss Oregon. Her legacy helped launch a program dedicated to scholarship, service, leadership, and opportunity for young women across Oregon.
Today, that tradition continues through the Miss Oregon Scholarship Program and the supporters who stand behind it.
