Author: another sad director
Subject: Re: Question

As a director and parent of a pageant contestant I have been on both sides. I respect the fact that most directors do not accept checks and can understand why. As a director I only allow checks as a deposit prior to the pageant but now that has even become a problem. Its not even just bad checks, its poor sportsmanship type behavior and bashing that is another concern of mine.

I know as a director I try my best to make everyone happy, which is not possible but I try. I take it as a personal matter , not just business because I truley care how people feel afterward and that can make it harder. Directors have to work hard to make the pageant a good experience for everyone mainly because thats our job as a director and what people paid entry fees to experience. But there is also the worry about being bashed and our reputations and its really too bad that people handle things the way they do sometimes. Yet these people can go from pageant to pageant without any repercussions from how they behaved or what happened at previous pageants whether it be bad checks or poor sportsmanship. If they knew directors were able to give feedback to one another they may be more careful .

Pageant contestants often voice their opinions to one another about a pageant experience, I feel that directors and pageant related business should have a way of sharing information in a professional manner. It is only fair. That is just my opinion however, and having a negative experience has alot to do with my opinion at this time. It would be interesting to see how other directors and related businesses feel about this as well . :)
