Categories of
Competition

EVENINGWEAR- 25%
This is your final moment in the spotlight! Attire should be a full-length formal gown of contestants choosing. The
contestant’s overall appearance, self-confidence, and sense of style are considered. Contestants are free to accessorize
as they wish, however we ask that they do not wear a headpiece or tiara during the eveningwear competition, as this would
interfere with the crowning of the new queen.
TALENT OR SPOKESMODEL- 25%
TALENT-
When it comes to talent, do what you do best. Be it singing, dancing, playing an instrument, giving a monologue, or any other
creative talent, just be sure to enjoy yourself! Judging will end at two minutes.
OR
SPOKESMODEL-
Contestants who choose to exhibit their writing and public speaking talents have the option of presenting a speech. Spokesmodel
performances can be about anything from your hometown to your favorite product, or in support of a special cause. Use your
imagination and be creative! Speeches must be a minimum of one minute long, and may not exceed two minutes.
*There
is no comparative judging. Every performance will be scored based on appeal and execution according to the specific discipline
or category. For example, a vocalist, spokes model, and tap dancer can all earn the same score.
