In reply to: It's me again. 's message, "Re: Miss Madison" on 16:13:21 01/22/26 Thu

I am sorry that my show didn't live up to your expectations. It is hard to put on a show and communicate with almost 24 girls and their parents that are newer to this world. It was also difficult to work around the restrictions of the venue. That being said, I put a ton of work into this show on top of my full time job. LET ME REMIND YOU THAT I AM A VOLUNTEER!!!!!

Ava is not a crown chaser. There is nothing wrong with competing in other systems and practicing! If anything it shows that she has been working hard for this moment for years. And I would love to know where you think Meredith's mom was Miss Indiana because that is news to me.

I don't understand why you all are so critical of Miss Madison. Every local is full of volunteers that are trying to leave a positive impact. If you would like to talk to me or criticize me. Email me. Clearly you know nothing of my intentions.

- Yes, alot of nice things, even the all-important sceptre for Ava----costly things which -- would have been better spent on scholarships. Ya think?, 20:54:30 01/28/26 Wed
  - Can't go one minute without complaining, can you? -- It was donated. It was special., 12:54:06 01/29/26 Thu
What Tara did not say as she is still embarrassed--Jeff Ripp stole all of their ticket money/box of -- Miss Madison shirts until theater security apprehended him., 14:02:25 01/25/26 Sun
- Oh my God. Did Tara press charges? How much ticket sale money did he try to get away with? -- They all should have guarded him like a hawk at the pageant., 18:10:20 01/25/26 Sun
  - The better question--did Tara or anyone chase after him and how was he able to get the shirts and -- ticket money and did it include people's personal checks?, 11:12:58 01/30/26 Fri
    - All of this seems strange--that Tara has not even answered this yet she did on another matter above -- and when we got Miss Madison tickets we paid at, 13:10:17 02/05/26 Thu
      - Overture Center ticket window near where the pageant was---but we -- do not see how he could've gotten the ticket money there?, 13:12:12 02/05/26 Thu
