Subject: I've heard Steven has wanted an open state for a while- less work for them; fewer EDs means less scrutiny; and no need to recruit locals. They'll run the 6 locals that have dates and if the others don't commit by November (I can't remember the deadline when locals have to commit for pageants after the new year) they'll declare the state Open. Author: They can't have only 9 titles, then all sweepers.

They don’t have enough girls willing to compete. It’s sickening that MAO let Steven run things into the ground & this year’s scandal was the last that anyone can take. Only one local so far this year. All the rest didn’t even have 4 girls sign up. Most of the young girls have gone on to Captivating this weekend. The coaches are telling girls where else to go. A couple of the prettier ones will go to USA. Why work your butt off & pay thousands on wardrobe & training only to have the whole thing be rigged? MAO will have to replace Ohio’s entire board or not have Ohio compete. That’s if MAO can even stay in business. All doubtful!" on 10:34:21 09/04/21 Sat [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> [> [> Subject: Speaking of recruiting locals: in the 4 years between 2014-2017, the leadership of the Miss Ohio program lost 5 local programs with 12 titles. Former contestants started Akron/Canton in 2016 and Capital City in 2018. Author: The only growth is add-on titles and festival pageant queens.
