NEW INFORMATION for 2009-10 local pageant season:
The Children's Miracle Network is the National Platform of the Miss America Organization. Each Miss contestant will be required to
raise $100 in donations for Children's Miracle Network in order to compete in a local Miss America pageant. Log on to:
http://missamerica4kids.org/ to begin raising the monies on your own (click on "new contestants"). After you sign in for Miss
Kumquat Pageant 2010, it will ask you who you would like to send the donation request to...friends/family. To save you from having
to type in everyone's email address, you can send the donation request email to yourself, and then you can forward it to everyone
in your address book once you've logged on and opened it in your personal email account.
LOCAL LEVEL:
All contestants must register at www.MissAmerica4Kids.org. Even though a contestant may have been involved in the Miss America
Pageant system last pageant cycle (leading to a State 2009 title), a new ID is needed when the contestant enters their first local
pageant of the 2010 pageant cycle. That ID chosen for the first local pageant will be used by that contestant throughout the
pageant season for that pageant cycle. DO NOT create a new ID for each pageant within a pageant cycle. Any donations collected,
in excess of the $100 for pageant 1, will automatically roll-over into the contestants excess account and will be used toward their
fund raising goal for pageant 2. Any excess funds from pageant 2 will automatically roll-over and will be used toward their fund
raising goal for pageant 3, etc. Contestants will still need to raise a minimum of $100 per local pageant entered up to $400 and must
register on line for each local pageant entered by going to www.MissAmerica4Kids.org and logging into their CMN personal page
and selecting the new pageant for the title that they are then currently competing for. When changing the "Pageant competing for:"
do not change your ID. If the contestant does not go on to compete at the State level, any excess funds over the $100 per pageant
entered will be equally distributed among all of the local pageants the contestant competed in.
If you have any trouble opening an application or rules please email us and let us know so that we can send you one in an email.
