North East Star is a pageant held in Calais, its a one time pageant, no moving on. NES (Natural, Simple, & Elegant) has prelim pageants all over the country. There is a New England pageant, as well as a tri-state (ME, NH, and VT) held, from the prelims you can go to the National NES pageant. That was held in CT Nov. 2-4 2007. Northeast star and NES have totally different directors, and offer different events. My dd has done both Northeast star and NES.

[> [> [> [> Subject: Natural, Simple, Elegant and North East Star both are NES so I can see why people think they are affiliated.

[> [> [> [> [> Subject: At NES, you are pretty much paying for a title. They give out so many.
Author: NEStar is the flip side of that--only the top 3 in an age grp get anything. From one [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 04:56:08 11/13/07 Tue extreme to the other. We need to find the happy medium!

[> [> [> [> [> [> Subject: It depends pon how you look at. I thought pageants were about the kids? Isn't it for them and the more that leave feeling good about themselves the better? NES does do this. Either way your choice

[> [> [> [> [> [> Subject: paying for a title? 120 contestants everyone didn't get a title. But it shows where the money goes BACK TO THE KIDS instead of in the director's pocket
