LISBON — The Moxie Festival Committee announced the winners of the Miss Moxie Pageant held on June 1. This was the first Miss Moxie Pageant held since the early 1990s when the event was a staple of the festival.

The Moxie Festival, celebrating Maine’s official soft drink, is always the second weekend in July, this year July 12 to 14.
