PEOPLE'S CHOICE OPEN SEPT 25-NOV 15

People’s Choice is an optional competition within the Mr. Oak Harbor Scholarship Competition. As a fundraiser, this competition is completely separate from the point system and has no bearing on the outcome of the overall competition results. It does, however, provide an opportunity for the public to vote for their favorite contestant. The contestant with the most votes wins People’s Choice, receives a crown and stole, and takes home a college scholarship equivalent to half of all People’s Choice votes. 

The scholarship amount is completely dependent upon the number of total People’s Choice votes but typically ranges between $1000 and $2500. 

The other half of the money goes to Whidbey Royalty to aid in providing the many scholarships Mr. Oak Harbor will award this year. Since 2015, Whidbey Royalty has delivered more than $200,000 in scholarships and awards to high schoolers in our community. People’s Choice fundraising goes a long way in providing those scholarships! 

Contestants will personally thank each of their supporters, and you will know that you have made a tax-deductible donation to an amazing organization here in Oak Harbor. Your votes will support many contestants in this year’s competition!

Whidbey Royalty is a 501(c)(3) charitable nonprofit organization (FEIN 85-1091323), so all donations are tax-deductible! 

Votes are collected online through the Whidbey Royalty website. Click on the People’s Choice page, scroll down, and click on your favorite contestant’s picture to vote with your dollars. Every tax-deductible one-dollar donation equals one vote.
