Subject: I also am a director, and have found that many pageants refuse to accept us as contestants. (click in) Author: Janet Bierer -Director America's SUPER Pageant [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 08/17/16 Wed In reply to: wanting to blow the dust off my heels 's message, "I'm a director of a state scholarship system. I would love to compete and hopefully win. How do I approach another system about entering without them thinking negatively? To me this is a personal decision and me being their queen could attract more girls to enter their system, however some feel like it's something else. I would love good feedback and help before I get my hopes up only for someone to pre-judge me." on 05/20/16 Fri I've been told by many that it is a conflict of interest, but I've never understood that way of thinking. If we are open to wearing another crown, then we are open to their platform and policies. We sign the same contract, etc. As the director for the America's SUPER Pageant, I have allowed "sister directors" to compete - and they have won, and been fabulous queens. And they have also allowed me to enter in their pageant system. In my opinion, we are sharing our love of pageantry, AND being a good example of Sportsmanship. Please feel free to check out our pageant at www.AmericasSUPERpageant.com [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

Subject Author Date MWI International allows directors to enter. They encourage everyone. Check them out - http://www.msmwiinternational.com (NT) Pageant Fan 08/26/16 Fri Ms. U.S. Woman of Achievement allowed a pageant Director to enter this past year. Many directors want to still compete. You may have to call individual systems to check and see what they allow. Every system and Director is different. For some it is a direct conflict...for others, depending on the focus and scoring, it may be permissible.. (NT) I think Royalty International allows directors of other systems to compete 01/06/17 Fri
