Leyla Campbell and Steph Kennedy will contest the competition, each with some experience under their belts.
Leyla has risen up through the younger Miss Showgirl ranks, winning Junior Miss Showgirl last year.
Steph was runner-up in 2015 and always planned to take another tilt at the crown, having enjoyed her initial experience.

Leyla enjoys camping, social opportunities, family gatherings, and team sport specifically basketball. She’s one to tackle any opportunity with 100 per cent effort.
Leyla looks forward to the Showgirl opportunity as a chance to promote Tenterfield, its beautiful locations and the beautiful people within this town.
