Subject: what you want in a pageant

Hello Ladies, I am a pageant director, and am considering starting a new pageant. I would like your input on how you would like a pageant to run. What do you like and dislike?

Parties and interesting meal events. Off site so we can get away from the pageant location for a couple of hours! (NT) -- No name, 18:51:48 08/17/04 Tue (cache-dtc-ab13.proxy.aol.com/205.188.116.77)
- Off site sounds like a good idea! I know that I could use a break away from the pageant location on occasion! Maybe scholarship to use for college would be good as a prize too. (NT) -- No name, 11:19:32 08/20/04 Fri (NoHost/63.164.145.198)
Reasonanle entry fee's, great prizes things a child would really like. I am not hung up on cash but, alot of people are, I love beautiful crowns and satin monagrammed banners. I like pageants that are about what kids like not about adults turning it into a small business opportunity. (NT) -- No name, 10:32:32 08/18/04 Wed (66-79-31-229.dsl.coastalnow.net/66.79.31.229)

Fun, fun, fun and better prizes than simply crowns, sashes, trophies, savings bonds and cheap toys. Any ideas? (NT) -- No name, 10:33:50 08/20/04 Fri (NoHost/63.164.145.198)

You should check out Kids USA -- No name, 13:47:42 08/26/04 Thu (cache-dtc-ab14.proxy.aol.com/205.188.116.78)
- Thanks! I've heard great things and I will! Do they really give cruises to the Bahamas and Jamaica? (NT) -- No name, 15:42:30 08/30/04 Mon (NoHost/63.164.145.198)
- Thanks for the website. It looks just right for us! I called the Director and she answered all of my questions without being pushy. She basically said come and watch a pageant and then decide as to whether it is right for us. Very sweet lady and I am impressed. I also asked if I could contact some of the other moms in her system and she said "Of course! Please do!" and she is connecting me with some in my daughter's division. (NT) -- No name, 16:19:04 09/09/04 Thu (NoHost/63.164.145.198)
  - I have now talked to some of the moms of girls in my daughter's age division and they have really great things to say about this system. We are doing the Christmas prelim and look forward to many fun times with Kids USA. I LOVE the moms I talked to! The only thing they said is that the competition is tough but we don't mind hanging with the big dogs! LOL I think we are up to it! (NT) -- No name, 07:35:09 10/08/04 Fri (NoHost/63.164.145.198)
    - Hanging with the big dogs? What are you talking about? The Kids USA royalty girls are beautiful! Or are you refering to how talented they are as being big dogs? They are talented and gorgeous! (NT) -- No name, 12:56:38 10/14/04 Thu (NoHost/63.164.145.198)
- I agree! It is the best system we have ever done! Cruises to the Bahamas are always great prizes! (NT) -- No name, 06:29:42 09/17/04 Fri (cache-dtc-ad02.proxy.aol.com/205.188.116.196)
- I am going to check them out. Sounds like a good system! (NT) -- No name, 06:13:21 09/20/04 Mon (cache-dtc-ad02.proxy.aol.com/205.188.116.196)
Fun parties, great prizes and a chance for new girls to win as well as the old established kids! What about parties at say, a waterpark? Sounds fun! (NT) -- No name, 15:10:03 08/31/04 Tue (NoHost/63.164.145.198)
- You just described Kids USA! No, really, even down to the waterpark. It is one system that we love! (NT) -- No name, 06:30:13 09/20/04 Mon (cache-dtc-ad02.proxy.aol.com/205.188.116.196)
  - Sounds good, but I'd love to talk personally to the Director. How do I do that? (NT) -- No name, 06:46:34 12/27/04 Mon (cache-rtc-ad01.proxy.aol.com/152.163.100.195)
reasonale entry fees and i would like a pageant that i don't have to put any thing fake to win a big crown.i would like a pageant where runer up get like a small crown and trophy (NT) -- se, 09:50:23 09/21/04 Tue (adsl-68-90-122-128.dsl.wcfltx.swbell.net/68.90.122.128)
- i would like to see boys with decent crowns - we pay the same as the girls and most of the time the prizes are garbage (NT) -- No name, 19:59:42 09/29/04 Wed (cache-mtc-ad02.proxy.aol.com/64.12.116.196)

- When there are as many boys in a division as there are girls in a division the prizes should be the same. But it is clear why there can't be huge prizes for boys if only a few are participating. (NT) -- No name, 07:30:46 10/08/04 Fri (NoHost/63.164.145.198)
  - only a few competing, lol you mean like the 45 boys in one group at Sunburst who get paper crowns? Oh yeah thats very fair! LMAO, Boys pay the same they should be treated the same, if a pageant is small it usually has small groups for them all not just boys, If it is big they get the boys and still don't give out good crowns.

honesty, fairness, judges need to really look at the beauty of the child not the cost of clothes and how much money mom has or how much mom can do for their system, just follow your own rules to a t, if you say no to something stand behind it no matter if anyone likes it or not... stand up for your judges, if they are right, and also stand up for your contestants, and their mothers if they are right, do not be afraid to step on peoples toes, to do what is right.......
