Hello Everyone!
We are recruiting contestants for the next Miss Black Georgia USA pageant! No, I'm not slowing down, and my reign is far from over, but we all know that I won't be your queen forever. I must pass the torch in November. The next queen could be you! Scholarship money, public exposure, networking opportunities, local celebrity for a year, are only A SMALL PORTION of what you will receive should you win the title.
Now, I know what you're thinking....
1) It's going to be expensive.
-Well, it is $175 to enter before May 1. Here's what you do. Tell your family and friends what you are doing, and believe me......they will be happy to help. When I told everyone that I was doing a pageant, everyone was so intrigued. They wanted to give. I did not pay for anything. Not the dress, shoes, makeup, jewelry, etc. So, don't worry about the money. It will be there.
2) I'm not a pageant girl.
-Let me tell you a secret. Come close so you can hear..........I'm not either. Lol! This was my FIRST pageant. So, when I say, "You can win your first pageant," I'm not just saying it to be saying it. I am living proof. I grew up playing basketball, volleyball, softball, swimming, and track. I was NOT into pageants. However, now I know that I can venture into a different kind of activity and be successful, and so can you.
3) I have a full-time job and no time to be Miss Black Georgia.
-The director and the board will work with your schedule. I am a third grade teacher, so I cannot do any appearances during the day. My director only schedules events when YOU are available. After all, you're the queen.
4) I'm too shy and scared to do a pageant.
-Preparing for the pageant and participating will bring you out of your shell. I promise! Once the pageant has come and gone, you will feel more comfortable in front of an audience...whether you win the title or not.
So, the decision is made! You have everything it takes to compete and win! I'll be looking for you!
