Darcy has a long involvement with the Milton Show and it's an event she looks forward to every year.
"I always looked up to the other showgirls and knew one day I wanted to enter this event," she said.
"I think this event is really important because it improves your public speaking and your confidence within yourself."
She is looking forward to taking part in the other stages of the showgirl event.
Darcy would like to thank the Milton Show Society for the chance to take part in the event.
"Thanks for putting this event on every year and bringing the community together," Darcy said to the Milton Show Society
Lacey was also happy and excited to win her award.
"I just did not think I would win," Lacey said.
Lacey said the other Teen Young Woman of the Year entrants were all amazing people.
"This really means a lot to me because I want to get more in the agricultural side of the shows," she said.
Lacey was an entrant last year and put her name in the mix again because she had so much fun in 2022.
