Subject: Cities of America by Nationals, Inc pageant

F.Y.I. I am not saying the pageant is a scam, but there were enough red flags after the information meeting and interview process for us to look into this further. Our daughter was "selected" to move onto the local pageant but when I had questions regarding the sponsorships, I hit a huge wall. One sponsor wanted to know if his "donation" was tax-deductible and how many girls would she be competing against. Good questions for someone who was willing to sponsor a good portion of the $500. I placed many phone calls to the toll free numbers provided. I either got a recording to leave a message, which I did or the other number just rang and rang. I NEVER received a call back and when I googled to pageant, there was no additional information on-line other than the website they provide you with and that is the same site city to city. When I googled Patty's name, the same thing happened - no additional information about her, as if she doesn't exist except for the press release that is provided for all the girls (exactly the same press release only different names). Too many red flags and VERY little information to show us that this was a legit pageant!! We choose not to participate and spend our/sponsorship $$ elsewhere....
