on the same day at the same venue . This year , they were held at the Chandler Center for the Arts in Randolph on April 23rd and April 24th . Although the Miss Vermont and Miss Vermont ’ s Outstanding Teen competitions are similar in format , there are several distinct differences . The Miss Vermont ’ s Outstanding Teen competition has a fitness phase , where candidates come out and do a fitness routine . There is also an optional , ancillary scholastic award for Miss Vermont ’ s Outstanding Teen candidates , which factors in their academic achievements .
Miss Vermont ’ s Outstanding Teen 2022 , Abagail Hunter , took home the crown after a spirited dance performance , which was set to “ They Just Keep Moving The Line ,” from the NBC musical television series , SMASH . Hunter ’ s Social Impact Initiative is Pursue The ARTS : Building Acceptance , Respect , Tolerance , and Safety . As part of her Social Impact Initiative , Hunter is collecting new and gently-used dance items , such as leotards , tights , ballet shoes , and tap shoes . After collecting them , she plans to donate them to dance and performing arts schools , where they can be distributed to students who may need help affording these items . She is also raising money for several dance studios , which will be awarded as scholarships and financial aid as the owners of the studios see fit . Hunter plans to put her scholarship money from the Miss Vermont ’ s Outstanding teen competition towards an undergraduate degree at Castleton University . She will begin her education there this fall . “ We are so proud of both Alexina and Abagail ,” says Darcie Fisher . “ They ’ re going to make an amazing difference with their Social Impact Initiatives , and it ’ s been a joy to work with them and see them grow through their involvement with Miss Vermont and Miss Vermont ’ s Outstanding Teen .”
