>Furthermore, the Miss America and Miss Wisconsin 2020
>competitions were postponed to 2021. Titleholders
>crowned during the 2020 competition season will

>competitions will be on hiatus for 2021.
>Our committee discussed the option of holding a

>What does all of this mean for our organization? It

>Miss Beloit 2019, Abby Miller, will continue her reign

Can you read? “All local competitions will be -- On hiatus for 2021”. No new locals are happening., 06:18:36 05/20/20 Wed
- Yes, I can read, but it still doesn't make sense. If they can hold the state pageant -- in June of 21, why can't the locals, 07:51:25 05/20/20 Wed
  - Because Abby Miller would still be Miss Beloit from January to June 2021 even though her year ends -- next month and they wish to not be a carry-over pageant., 11:18:06 05/20/20 Wed
  - Miss Wis Board said no locals after June 21, 2020. Beloit is required to give up their titles by -- that date- they don't get another year., 11:26:49 05/20/20 Wed
    - They want the class of 2020 finished so that they can move forward, they aren't giving any -- extensions into 2021, 11:30:15 05/20/20 Wed
      - Well, I guess they have their completed class for 2020 now----without Miss Beloit -- Miss Harbor Cities---and three/four Wis. Sweeps winners., 11:38:10 05/20/20 Wed
        Harbor Cities and Sweeps will be virtual comps next month. Beloit opted not to have a virtual comp -- Beloit, 13:05:11 05/21/20 Thu
        That should be lovely. Imagine the host saying...our next talent is by Hannah Ostertag who will sing -- "If I ain't got you".....suddenly they lose ZOOM connection., 10:05:06 05/22/20 Fri
        Exavtly! There is bo reason whatsoever why Harbor Cities, Beloit amt the -- Sweeps pageants could not have been held in March 2021., 12:04:44 05/22/20 Fri
        It could be worse---everyone on Zoom anxious to hear who wins Miss Harbor Cities when they say -- "Our new Miss Harbor Cities is....." and power goes out., 11:36:28 05/28/20 Thu
