Coral Springs resident Alana Scheuerer has been crowned this year’s Miss South Florida Fair, making her eligible to compete in the Miss Florida pageant held in Lakeland, Florida, this June.
The fair pageant victory by Scheurer, who served as Miss St. Petersburg the past two years, earned her a prize of $5,000 to use toward her existing student loans.
She grew up in Coral Springs and attended Maplewood Elementary, Sawgrass Springs Middle, and Coral Glades High schools before heading to Florida State University and earning her bachelor’s degree in Hospitality Management, as well as a master’s degree in American dance.
Scheurer is the founder of Turn up Artistic Participation (TAP), where she provides school visits, public speaking events, and event hosting to further promote the arts, according to a press release announcing her pageant win.
“Her passion for dance was cultivated right in Coral Springs at the Xpress Yourself Dance Studio,” according to the press release.
“From exciting arts programming, events, culture, diversity, and the best restaurants in South Florida, Alana is proud to represent Coral Springs, the city she calls home.”

The fair runs through Jan. 30. The fairgrounds are at 9067 Southern Boulevard in West Palm Beach, one mile west of the Florida Turnpike exit #97.
