Each Contestant is responsible
for a $75 entry fee. Your entry fee must be paid at the Mother/Daughter meeting
on May 18, 2008. The $75 may be collected from several
resources if you choose. You may collect from your parents, relatives,
businesses, etc. Collect the fee from the resources that are easily
available to you. If you cannot find the funding for your entry fee, then
a committee member will assist you in finding a donor. NO ONE
will be excluded for not being able to collect their entry fee!
You will need to complete the ENTRY
FORM to participate in the Pageant.
The information session should last about an hour. Plan
to spend an additional 30 minutes completing forms and actually registering for
the Pageant! We will hang around afterwards to answer questions!!
This is a MANDATORY meeting that
allows the Committee to give in-depth instruction on the judges applications,
appropriate dress, behavioral expectations and other aspects of the Pageant.
Please make plans to attend if you want to participate in the 2008 Pageant!!
Each Contestant will receive a
FREE Pageant T-Shirt. Additional Pageant T-Shirts will be available for
friends and family to order. The T-Shirts will have all the names of the
2008 Contestants listed on the back! So, it's a wonderful keepsake!!
You must order them no later than the
Mother/Daughter meeting! So, ask your family NOW if they want one!
Each t-shirt costs anywhere from $12 to $15 (depending on size). Payment
is required at time of ordering!
The 2007 Jennings County Fair
Queen Pageant was a wonderful success and we're expecting a bigger and better
Pageant for 2008!!
Below is some information
that you need to be aware of if you are a 2008 Contestant! Please take a
minute to read through the information!
Contestant Information
-
Instructions
concerning walking and turning will be given prior to judging.
However, please
practice walking and turning before the contest. It would be wise to
see yourself walk, then you will know if your posture is good, shoulders are
back and head is up. Also, find a comfortable way of moving and
holding your hands. At our practices many of your "walking"
questions will be answered.
-
High-heeled
shoes with a 2-1/2 to 3 inch heel will flatter your leg and figure as well
as make you comfortable and confident while you are walking. Practice
walking in your shoes to make you feel at ease in them before the contest.
You will need the shoes you will wear in the pageant at all practices.
-
Make-up
for the stage should be slightly heavier than everyday make-up.
-
Contestants
are encouraged to attend all functions preceding the pageant. Please
communicate with a pageant committee member if you have a conflict with any
of the dates. We try to be as flexible as possible, but we do require
attendance at the dress rehearsal.
-
The
Queen and Miss Congeniality must be willing and able to participate in the
Jennings County Fair. The court may have a few responsibilities as
well.
-
The
queen must also be willing and be able to compete at the Indiana
State Fair Queen Pageant August 6-17, 2008.
-
The
contestants are judged on the basis of poise, personality, and ability to
converse. The judging is divided into three divisions.
