If they gave a crown for persistence, Emma Garrison would get it. On her fourth try, she became the 2023 Miss La Crosse Oktoberfest. Because of her talent and determination, the 2022 UW-La Crosse graduate has won the title. Garrison received the honor during the scholarship program at the Capella Performing Arts Center Saturday, Sept. 9. The 23-year-old persisted through 16 competitions during the past four years to land a Miss America organization title that will allow her to compete for the Miss Wisconsin crown next June.
