| Miss Leeds Area How to Enter |
Miss Leeds Area 2012 Sponsored by the Leeds Area Chamber of Commerce Dear Contestants, You are invited to enter the Miss Leeds Area 2012 and Miss Leeds Area Outstanding Teen Scholarship program to be held on Saturday, June 18, 2011 at Leeds High School Leeds, Alabama. Miss Leeds Area is an open pageant and young women between the ages of 17 and 24 by December 31, 2012 are eligible to enter. Each participant must never have been married and must be of good moral character. Miss Leeds Area is a one day pageant. Contestants will be asked to arrive at 8:00 a.m. and will stay until the evening’s pageant is complete. Each contestant will need a black cocktail dress for the opening number. The theme of this year's pageant will be "That's Entertainment". Both lunch and dinner are provided at the school. In addition to qualifying as a contestant in the Miss Alabama 2012 Pageant, the winner of this pageant will join a long line of other successful Miss Leeds Area winners in service to the Leeds community. The winner and runners-up will receive cash and in-kind scholarships and prizes. Entry deadline is June 4, 2011 at 5:00 pm. Mail to: PO Box 900 Leeds, AL 35094 Contact Sandra McGuire at 205-699-5001 or 205-965-9392 with any questions. The Miss Leeds Area organization will once again host the Rising Star program for its contestants. Young girls between the ages of 7 and 11 will participate in an afternoon event, and will be a part of the show on Saturday evening. The fee is $50 for the Rising Stars. They will be randomly drawn from a hat by the newly crowned Miss Leeds Area (unless a contestant specifically requests a Rising Star on their application). The $375 fee for the Rising Star to participate in the Miss Alabama Pageant will be paid. It is very important if you have a Rising Star that you contact them and have them enter our event. Miss Leeds Area will be required to take the Rising Star to Miss Alabama from this pageant. Sincerely, Sandra McGuire, 205-699-5001 Director |
