FIRST OF ALL I DONT RESPECT ANYONE THAT DOESN'T GIVE THEIR NAME.I THINK IT IS SNEEKY..I WOULD HOPE THAT ANYONE THAT HAS DONE MY PAGEANT WOULD ALSO POST A MESSAGE TO DEFEND OUR PAGEANT AND IN DOING SO GIVE NAME AND GIVE ME THEIR SUPPORT. I FEEL REALLY BAD FOR MELANIE DAVIS SHE IS A WOUNDERFUL GIRL AND YOU WOULD MY RICHER IF SHE WAS YOUR FRIEND ...AND FOR THE ONE WHO IS A SOUR LOOSER...I HAVE NEVER SAID ANYTHING ABOUT ANYONE BEFORE, AFTER, OR DURING THE PAGEANT. BUT I CAN SEE THAT SOMEONE HAS GOT TO GET A LIFE! MELANIE WON FARE AND SQUARE...ARIEL IS NOT A BOARD BY JUST A WONDERFUL PAST QUEEN THAT HAS OFFERED EACH YEAR SINCE HER REIGN TO HELP ME IN ANY WAT SHE CAN/ I MENTIONED HER NAME AS PART OF MY COMMITTEE IN THE THANK YOUS BECAUSE SHE HELPED ME OUT OF A REAL PERDICAMENT THIS YEAR. OUR QUEEN 2004 WAS NOT ABLE TO BE THERE THIS YEAR FOR COMMERCIAL COMPETITION AND THE QUEEN IS ALWAYS INCHARGE OF THIS, AND ALWAYS TAKES CARE OF GETTING ALL THAT DONE FOR ME...IN THE PROCESS OF GETTING INTOUCH WITH HER MOM I KEEP MISSING HER. I WANTED TO SEE IF COMMERCIAL WAS TAKEN CARE OF..SHORT STORY...I COULD'NT GET HOLD OF HER SO I WENT TO A PLAN "B". CALL ARIEL DAVIS MY HELPFUL PAST QUEEN.SOOOOOO I CALLED AND EXPLAINED THIS AND SHE ARRANGED THE COMMERCIAL COMPETITON WITH JUDGES SCORS SHEETS ETC AND ALL CAME, TO MY SUPPRISE MRS. BROOKS (BECAUSE OF MY INABILITY TO GET INTOUCH WITH HER) ALSO SHOWED..WITH SCORE SHEETS JUDGES ETC....SO WHAT DO WE DO?? GUESS WHAT? LET ALL JUDGE..EVERYONE WOULD GET THE SAME AMOUT OF POINTS FOR THAT PART..COMMERCIAL. WE HAD SIX JUDGES AND EVERYONE WAS HAPPY...THAT WAS ALL THAT ARIEL DID FOR ME EXCEPT BE AT ORIENTATION AND SUPPORT ME AND BE THERE AS A PAST QUEEN WANTING TO HELP.....*AS FOR JUDGES... MANY OF OUR LOCAL PAGEANTS HAVE LOCAL JUDGES..WE ROTATE OUR JUDGES EACH YEAR.. THIS YEAR'S JUDGES HAVE JUDGED AND PARTICIPATED IN MISS WEST VIRGINIA SYSTEM, MRS WEST VIRGINIA SYSTEM, WEST VIRGINIA FAIRS AND FESTIVALS SYSTEM, WV UNIVERSITY AND FROM A STATE OWNED BUSINESS CORPORATION. THESE JUDGES ARE BUSINES PERSONS, UNIVERSITY FACULTY,BUSINESS EXECUTIVES THAT GET TO KNOW THE CONTESTANT FROM ONLY JUDGES INTERVIEWS. THE JUDGES FOR COMMERCIAL (6) WERE DIFFERENT FROM PAGEANT NIGHT (4)..IT WOULD TAKE ALOT OF MONEY TO BRIBE ALL THOSE JUDGES WOULD'T IT? IT WOULD BE HARD FOR ME TO INFLUENCE THEM AS MY JUDGES DIRECTOR HAS A MASTER LIST OF JUDGES NAMES SHE USES EACH YEAR AND I DO NOT KNOW WHICH ONE SHE SELECTS UNTIL I AM INTRODUCED TO THEM AT OUR QUEEN'S LUNCHEON..I DON'T KNOW ANY SCORES ANYTIME BECAUSE SHE DOES NOT LET ANYONE, EVEN ME , KNOW. MY PAGEANT IS OVER NOW AND I COULD'T TELL YOU ANYONES SCORES....A BOARD MEMBER IS ON HAND AT THE TABULATING TABELE...YOU KNOW WHAT GIRLS I THINK YOU ALL NEED TO MEET ME..I THINK WE HAVE A SORE LOOSER HERE TALKING AND TRYING TO BRING DOWN ALL OUR GOOD WORKS. DO YOU THINK A INSTITUTION LIKE W.V.JR. COLLEGE WOULD INDORSE JUST ANY PAGEANT?.. I HOPE YOU ALL HAVE HAD THE PATIENCE TO READ THIS ALL THE WAY THROUGH BECAUSE I LOVED ALL MY CONTESTANTS THIS YEAR (AND EACH YEAR) I ALWAYS STAND BACK AND LET PEOPLE TALK ABOUT ME AND SAY WHAT THEY WANT. BUT SOMETIMES EVEN THE BIGGEST HEARTS HAVE TO SPEAK OUT..YOU WOULD LOVE OUR PAGEANT..WE ARE FAIR..WE ALWAYS TRY TO PLEASE OUR GIRLS..EACH YEAR I LEARN A LITTLE MORE ABOUT DIRECTING A PAGEANT..EACH YEAR I TRY TO IMPROVE EVERYTING ABOUT THE PAGEANT..MAY BE GOD WILL HELP ME NEXT YEAR..BUT THEN I GUESS THE NO NAME COMPLAINERS WOULD STILL TRY TO FIND WHY THEY OR THEIR FRIENDS DIDM'T WIN..AND FIND SOMETHING WRONG IN GOD'S HELPING ME HUGH?// MELANIE DON'T LET PEOPLE LIKE THIS SPOIL YOUR REIGN AND GIRLS I HOPE THAT BEING A PAGEANT WINNER ALSO MEANS BEING A KIND AND GREATFUL PERSON.GUESS THAT IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY..." MY NAME IS ANNETTE HARE AND I AM THE DIRECTOR OF THE MONONGALIA COUNTY FAIR QUEEN'S SCHOLARSHIP PAGEANT!!"

First and foremost, Annette and everyone involved in this pageant is absolutly amazing!!! They will do anything for their girls!! Secondly, Melanie is such a sweet girl and she did soooo well and earned her title without a doubt! As for the judges, complete professionals!!! We all got judged very fairly!!...and if any favoritism was shown...then I'm pretty sure that there would be NO Queen because I know Annette would never be able to choose just one girl...she would want all of us as her Queens!! I won't just sit here and let people trash my friends! Annette especially! Year to year she makes sure we all have everything we need and takes the time out of running such a busy pageant to truley get to know all the girls! I truley recomend this pageant to anyone....don't let people like this make you hesitate to compete next year! You will have the best time!!! I pomise!! Annette...I love you and don't worry about people like this...you know you have a huge heart and we all love you! Melanie, you deserve the crown that is on your head right now! You did such an amazing job and you are such a sweet girl <3!!
