The winner will be chosen to lead the second annual New Orleans St. Joan of Arc parade on January 6, 2010 in the French Quarter. This contest is modeled after the contest held annually in Orléans, France, where they select a local girl to lead their military parade celebrating Joan’s victorious lifting of the siege of Orléans from the British in 1428. </FONT></SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV><BR></DIV></DIV></DIV><BR></DIV></DIV></DIV><BR></DIV></DIV></DIV><BR></DIV></DIV></DIV></div><br>
