The Defeat of Jesse James Days Royalty Scholarship Program is designed to promote growth and educational experiences to young adults through the promotion of the Defeat of Jesse James Days celebration. The Defeat of Jesse James Days is dedicated to volunteerism and developing leaders who will serve as positive role models.

The Defeat of Jesse James Days Royalty Scholarship Program accomplishes this by enabling young adults 1) to learn more about the Defeat of Jesse James Days history and celebration 2) to participate in the promotion of the Defeat of Jesse James Days while educating the public as our ambassadors and 3) to create lifelong memories and associations.

Each year the Defeat of Jesse James Days crowns royalty to promote our great celebration within our own community and throughout the region. The royalty will spend the next year visiting many other communities and meeting hundreds of people through parades, coronations, and other special events.

The Queen will have an opportunity to participate in the St. Paul Winter Carnival and Minneapolis Aquatennial Programs. Aside from the lifelong memories and associations that will be made, at the end of their satisfactory year long reign scholarship awards will be presented! Good Luck!

There is a list of Entry Requirements and Information available, but generally the candidates must be at least 18 years of age by the date of the coronation for the celebration in which they are competing and must work within or have their permanent address with the Northfield School District #659.

The Judging and Qualifications rules, Wardrobe Suggestions, Candidate Code of Conduct and Royalty Code of Conduct are available for review.

Each Royalty Candidate is typically sponsored by a local business with the $200 registration fee. The Coronation Committee can assist in finding sponsors if needed.

Local businesses donate MANY prizes for this event and the Defeat of Jesse James Days Committee awards scholarships to the Queen and the two Princesses.

A Defeat of Jesse James Days Photo Album exists for this event.

The DJJD Committee is not responsible for any personal injury incurred while participating in this event. The Coronation is a button event plus a $5 fee for adults and $2 for children under 12. Buttons will be available for sale at the event ($3 each).
