This is a good one. I recently went to a pageant where my daughter's info from the emcee sheet was not read while she was onstage. After viewing the DVD I found she was the only child in her division who did not have her bio read. We are not part of any coaching group but the emcee is a well known coach. I was very disappointed. How hard is it to just read the information for a kid onstage? -- PARENTS FOR FAIR PAGEANTS CLUB

[> I already avoid pageants when a coach is listed as an MC. C/I -- Anonymous, 14:35:09 10/19/07 Fri [1]

I have had this happen to my child, where a well known coach did not read her mc sheet when she was on stage. On the spur of the moment we did another pageant not knowing who the MC was. Sure enough it was the same coach MCing and she did the same thing, but this time to my younger one. I was really aggravated. If the MC isn't listed now I ask. Directors have to realize that incidences like this will hurt their numbers. If they think they are saving money by getting a cut rate MC, then they are mistaken. It is the old saying-Penny wise, Pound Foolish. We pay too much money to have our child not given the same attention/respect while they are on stage.
