How to Become A 2011
Mrs. Mississippi America Delegate

In order to accommodate the early spring date of the 2011 Mrs. America Pageant (April 2011), it is necessary for us to hold
Mrs. Tennessee and Mrs. Mississippi together this year. We have obtained special permission from the Mrs. America
Headquarters to hold our state pageants together just this ONE year! We decided to put it ON the border of both states in
Tunica, MS at the spectacular Goldstrike Casino Resort! We will be updating our web site soon with links and information
for Goldstrike, but needless to say it is the premier destination in Tunica for glamour, fine dining, golf, gaming and for the
weekend of January 28-30th it will hold the most beautiful women in Tennessee and Mississippi! Read below on how to be
a part of this ONE NIGHT, ONE STAGE, TWO CROWNS EVENT!

1) Download an application from this website, fill it out and send in along with a snapshot of yourself (this photo and
application will NOT be used for the state pageant judging); you will have plenty of time to submit a professional
photograph and a new application for the judges to see) and a $300 deposit toward your state pageant entry fee of $600.
You may either email it to me, or mail it to me at the addresses below. Please be sure to specify on the top of the application
the "local title" that you are applying for, along with a second choice in case the title you want has already been assigned to
someone else. Titles are awarded on a first come basis, so if your application is received first, and you meet the above listed
requirements, the local title will be yours.

2) We accept personal checks or payment via Paypal, credit or debit card through the link below. The local title is not
officially yours until the application, snapshot and $300 deposit is received in the pageant office. The local title will be
yours from October 1st through the following Mrs. America National Competition, including your participation in the Mrs.
Mississippi Pageant during that time frame. Upon receipt of your application, snapshot & deposit, we will advise you within
three business days of your acceptance as a contestant, and which local title you have been awarded. If we find that you do
not meet the entry requirements, your $300 deposit will be returned to you immediately. Once accepted as a local titleholder,
an embroidered sash will be ordered and sent to you. You may wear this sash if you choose to do local charity work, parades,
etc.in your community. Local community work is NOT required to participate in the state pageant, but the more you are "out
there" in the public eye, the easier it will be for you to secure sponsors and ad sales for the state pageant.

3) You will also be required to sign a contestant agreement that states that you will represent your "local title" in the 2011
Mrs. Mississippi America Pageant, January 28-30, 2011 in Tunica, Mississippi.

4) The fees for the state pageant are $600, from which you deduct the deposit of $300 that was sent in with your
application. This leaves a balance of $300 due by January 9, 2011. You may, and are encouraged to obtain sponsors for all
of your fees. You may list sponsor names beside your contestant photo in the on line program book in recognition of their
sponsorship. You may offer to make appearances with your local title to sign autographs, etc. in exchange for sponsorships
from businesses. Contestants are also responsible for the cost of and reservations for their own lodging on pageant weekend
at the host hotel prescribed by the Mrs. Mississippi America Pageant.

5) Each contestant is also required to sell a minimum of $300 in advertisements in our online program book. Any
combination of ad sizes may be used to reach the $300 minimum. The full color on line program book will remain posted on
this web site until the spring of 2012, or until the next year's program book replaces it. A rate sheet will follow in your
complete entry packet with the ad prices. Ad sales are due by the pageant forms and paperwork deadline of January 9, 2011.

6) If you are forced to resign from your local title, or withdraw from the Mrs. Mississippi America competition for any
reason after any or all of your fees have been paid, no refund will be given. Depending on the circumstance, a credit to
participate in the following year's competition may be issued. This is solely at the Director's discretion.

Please email your application, local title choice (1st & 2nd choice) and snapshot of yourself to: info@mrsmississippipageant.
