Christopher T. Guy I understand your frustrations. While the future of pageantry may look dismal; few contestants and a lack of attendance, the winds of change are blowing. Gay Pageanty will never return to those days of yesteryear or should it, but rest assures there is an evolution at works. In my position as Director of Entertainment, my goal is ensure all pageants at Parliament House are successful. With an ability to control some variables (ads, staffing, promotions, etc.), insuring a small degree of pageant momentum. The true success of a pageant is largely based on the contestants decision to compete and that has greatly declined. Why, I can only speculate. Yet It seems to me this valued art form must face the reality of the times. 1) Pageants cost to much money, categories must be affordable.. No longer do girls have financial sponsors as in the past. 2) Queens should enter and support local bar pageant if they are to remain employed. 3) Queen unable to enter a pageant, should encourage potential contestants who wish to compete, not discourage with rumors. 4) Fear of potential contestants should never intimidate or stop one from competition.. 5) Scoring must be transparent. To invest ones time, energy, and $, the least promoters can do is to make scores visible. 6) Promoters must ensure judges are professional and free of favoritism. 7) Contestants must respect promoters, realizing they are not m millionaires. Often at a great financial loss, promoters continue to bankroll pageants, keeping pageantry alive.. Winning a prelim does not guarantee u a blank check.. Children I dont have all the answers and my comments are intended as part of the solution. My love of pageantry runs deep, and I vow to do my best to keep this honored tradition going... Comments are welcomed.. -Ms Darcel👠👠
