I will start by saying that in the opinion of MANY there were some very strange out comes. If you look at the website what the judges were looking for, then base it on what you saw on stage, it was obvious who should of been in the top 3 in each catagory. HOWEVER, some of the girls who do a lot of pagenats, know there stuff, and did everything 100% correct did not place at all. But, if you stumble, forget what you are saying during introduction, and do your own thing you win? Doesn't make sense. I saw a lot of younger girls crying because they did not get anything. There were at least 10 or more in the 3-6 year old group. Yes, the winners got lovely sashes, but the princess were hand made gotty. Letters were pressed on with a star half falling off. There were "a lot" of ties, but contestants were not allowed to see score sheets, strange....Its funny how a lot of "LOCAL" girls won. This is not one I would recomend unless you live in the area.

There were MANY tears on and off stage, but a lot of the girls were, in my opinion, too young to be in a pageant like this. It was a long day for them! Developmentally, kids this young don't have the patience for all the waiting required for an event that starts in the afternoon and goes into the evening, especially those little ones who are used to napping and have 7 p.m. bedtimes. Just my opinion.
