Author: Anonymous [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: Friday, November 20, 02:51pm Message was sent to teen and her parent and copied to state ED. It came from Kathryn Kennemuth. Don't know if others were notified at the same time. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> [> [> Subject: HUH? Clearing what up? That last year they waited until five weeks before the pageant to announce performers? You can believe what you want, but if your DD didn't receive her invite last summer, believe me, it ain't coming.

My daughter was one of the performers last year and she did not receive her invitation until Dec. 9. We knew an OT from the year before (2007) who was asked to perform at MA 2008 and she also received her invitation in December. One of these two was a finalist and award winner and the other one did not win anything or make finals. Last year's e-mail stated: "Once I have confirmation I will pass on all the details! If you do accept this opportunity please do not release the information until the MAOT offices have. This will be around December, 15."
FYI, Last year's teen performers at MA and their placement/awards were:
Tuesday - NC OT, anthem; PA OT (1RU, Don Magness award), song
Wednesday - TX OT (T10, talent/evening prelims), anthem; MAOT Taylor Fitch, dance number
Thursday - MD OT (3RU, fitness prelim, academic award, scholarship), anthem; All teens, production number
Saturday - AL OT (non-finalist talent), anthem
