Yes, they gave her the things that were promised as part of her prize package, so as to avoid litigation. If you call that "support" then yes, ISA is supporting Crystal. (NT)	No name	13:26:19 08/09/15 Sun
Precisely. (NT) -- No name, 08:47:44 08/10/15 Mon i also heard the board is fulfilling their organizational duties... gifting Crystal $1,000 a month just like others formers and Peyton $3,000. Hate to say that sounds like a they are fulfilling all responsibilities for the State titleholders even though terminated. (NT) -- No name, 16:17:42 08/10/15 Mon Then MAO needs to grow a pair and issue a cease and desist letter. If they were terminated and there's no appeal ISA is now in violation of the termination letter. (NT) -- No name, 16:25:12 08/10/15 Mon In violation and bleeding the account of any money that could be used by the next group. (NT) -- No name, 18:21:51 08/10/15 Mon Out of goodwill and the kindness of their hearts, I'm sure. (NT) -- No name, 18:30:58 08/10/15 Mon They gave Peyton $3000.00. They gave the last Teen $300.00 Wow inflation! (NT) -- No name, 21:23:10 08/12/15 Wed I know for a fact that Grace certainly did not receive that much from the ISA (NT) -- No name, 23:47:38 08/12/15 Wed If it's not their job, they're suing because they need money, and this is more than what was given to the OT before, I wonder why they're doing it. (NT) -- No name, 06:59:27 08/13/15 Thu Maybe because Peyton deserves it! Grace was a crybaby and no one ever even saw her. Except of course when she was whining to her crazy mother. (NT) -- No name, 09:50:23 08/13/15 Thu Or maybe because they're trying to make sure there are no funds to pass onto the next corporation because (in their minds) that money belongs to them. Funds given by friends, families and supporters of the girls and the program, earned through donations, ad sales, ticket sales, badge sales, license and insurance fees from locals-none of which has anything to do with AS & GS. Funds they're trying to drain so the girls and the program are left with nothing. (NT) -- No name, 10:19:40 08/13/15 Thu Being "deserving" should not be left up to someone's discretion, particularly a person who no longer holds the contract, but rather it should be a set amount the winner is contractually entitled to have. This kind of manipulating and game-playing is an excellent illustration of why a change in the program had to be made. (NT) -- No name, 10:27:11 08/13/15 Thu Or maybe no one saw her because Amalia put all the titleholders in a supply closet (NT) -- No name, 10:57:03 08/13/15 Thu While funny, your point is kind of trivial when compared to the intentional drain on the resources that will be available for the girls who compete in the future, including Grace if she ever decides to compete in this program again. (NT) -- No name, 11:34:30 08/13/15 Thu Hopefully the new team that takes over is able to recreate the Organization and make it better than it is was before. Then hopefully Grace and other contestants are able to compete WITH resources and enjoy their time, because unfortunately I know many did not under the previous dictatorship (NT) -- No name, 12:14:50 08/13/15 Thu The only crazy is Amalia! (NT) -- No name, 13:47:10 08/13/15 Thu Takes one to know one! So back at you posted, you must be a cry baby and crazy! (NT) -- No name, 16:07:37 08/13/15 Thu Grace was one of the most talented and articulate ladies this pageant has seen. Too bad the board chose to tear down a teenager and then force her to wear an ill fitting gown when her state gown had been perfect. No this is not her mother, but someone who knows the whole story. (NT) -- No name, 22:42:11 08/14/15 Fri Hmm don't know if I would say one of best. I was at spring forum when's he had here crying temper tantrum in hall and bathroom. You could hear her,her mom, and her local directors all yelling etc. my daughter turned to me and said , "and she is representing the state , hmm really?? Not appropriate . (NT) -- No name, 07:57:24 08/15/15 Sat As someone who competed with Grace, she is the farthest thing from a poor representation for our state. She was always so kind and she is honestly one of the most intelligent, talented, and hardworking individuals I've ever met. I was glad she beat me, because she deserved it. She's been on Broadway and won a 20,000 dollar scholarship for her platform work. And you know what? I think anyone would cry and be upset if they had to put up with half the things the past state titleholders had to put up with. - A former contestant (NT) -- No name, 10:54:08 08/15/15 Sat And... I think this is absurd to even say this about Grace. I also know the family well. I remember talking to her Mom about some of the crazy things that were said to Grace. I'm certain that this was the year Grace dreamed of. I know when I talked to her Mom at the Reception they were done with this organization and were happy to be gone and disappointed that other states have great leadership and provide wonderful experiences for their titleholders. I hope this State gets its act together because this experience shouldn't be like this for titleholders. Grace I doubt you are reading this, but you were an amazing example of what I would like my daughter to become! (NT) -- No name, 23:02:31 08/15/15 Sat Scott caused this. He is horrible and should never have been working with teens. Look who Amalia chose to be in charge of teenage girls. Scary isn't is. I'd cry to if he was my director. (NT) -- No name, 09:38:53 08/19/15 Wed Joe Perri was worse as her Board Chairman....arrogant "friend" of Scott's. Another fine choice Amalia made! (NT) -- No name, 15:37:26 08/19/15 Wed Board President rather..... (NT) -- No name, 15:40:31 08/19/15 Wed my daughter competed as teen and thought Scott was always nice to use and gave us advise when asked. We never had a problem with him. (NT) -- No name, 18:18:48 08/19/15 Wed you are defended him. He told girls everything that was wrong and acted like an expert in pagentry. He was nothing of that. (NT) -- No name, 18:26:38 08/19/15 Wed The scott we experienced was nothing like that. His advice he gave at spring forum was so misleading. It had me and my daughter confused to bits. (NT) -- No name, 19:25:35 08/19/15 Wed We were not confused. I think he answers questions and 28 teens and parents there, didn't seem all were confused. If you had questions to clarify should have asked. (NT) -- No name, 13:12:29 08/20/15 Thu Oh my god Scott go home (NT) -- No name, 14:40:48 08/20/15 Thu I'm a mom of teen not him sorry (NT) -- No name, 15:02:15 08/20/15 Thu Well from our experience he didn't know what he was talking about. I'm sure if you followed advise your daughter would have lost. (NT) -- No name, 22:17:14 08/20/15 Thu
