Poster Time...

This year we aren't going to make anyone sell tickets... however, in exchange I need everyone to stop by my house and get posters to put up.  I have a list of where to put them so it shouldn't be too stressful, you're only in charge of 10.  Your job is to come get these posters from my house on Saturday or Sunday (I'm hoping and assuming no one works on one of those days) and put them up around town to your designated spots BY WEDNESDAY, THE 3RD.  I know this is a lot to ask, but everyone should be able to put up 10.  If there are places, like your workplace, that would be more convenient for you, just leave a comment below and I'll add those places to your list.

Thank you girls!  We're almost there!!!

Missing Paperwork Needed

OK....the dreaded "call everyone to repentance" post.  I've spoken to a few of you, I know the reasons but I need these tonight....no exceptions.  Kellie, Emilee, and Laura I'm pretty sure I lost some paperwork somehow and I apologize.  Will you please email them again to me?  So, if you see your name below, you need to get those items to me no later than tonight.  Thanks girls.  We're almost there.  I'll see everyone in the morning!  If you knew the battle I had some boys fighting over being able to drive 9 beauty queens down main you'd laugh :)  So awesome.

Parade and Other Reminders

Parade is Monday, July 25th.  Everyone needs to be at line up, at 400 South 100 East, at no later than 9:30 am.  You need to be wearing a white shirt and capris/ long shorts.  If you have any questions you can call or email me, you're always welcome to leave a comment below which also sends an email directly to me.  IF YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO ATTEND, YOU MUST LET ME KNOW BEFORE SUNDAY.

Also...there are a few of you that still need to get me a headshot.  I am up against the very last minute that I can possibly be to get the posters done, SO IF YOU HAVE NOT GOTTEN ME AN 8x10 HEADSHOT, 5 WALLETS, AS WELL AS EMAILING ME COPY OF IT YOU HAVE TO DO IT BEFORE SUNDAY.  ABSOLUTELY NO EXCEPTIONS.  

Production Number Choreography :)

Contestants don't come in for production number until their introductions (around 2:20 of the song "Just the way you are" by Bruno Mars). You will dance with a ballroom partner to the microphone to intro yourself "contestant #..... Aimee Peterson" and then walk off the side your mic is on and wait for end choreography. SO this is a video of your part without your partner counted out slow, then girl with partner counted slow, full speed with partner counted without music, with music from the back, with music from the front view, then the finale choreography counted slow, then choreography fast w music. For your intros you will be on an even side, or odd side. If you were not able to attend the production number rehearsal, I drew your number out of a hat. Pay attention to which number you are so that you know which side to practice from. Laura, you are now #2 because Peyton isn't doing it...
#1 Rachel Fullwood
#2 Laura Bugg
#3 Amanda Weller
#4 Kellie Terry
#5 Miranda Blackwell
#6 Crystal Cardon
#7 Emilee Eagar
#8 Kristin Bassett
#9 Jacey Halterman

....so all odd #'s are coming in from the left side of the stage, even #'s from the right.

 For the final choreography, this is where you will be in the formation.  Like if the video above were the audience, this is where you will go.  Pay attention, its different for those who were here friday.  I changed it according to what side you're going off so that you have less to walk to come back on:

                         *****Audience******

 Crystal   Kristin         Aimee        Amanda   Jacey
Kellie               Laura              Rachel     Emilee   Miranda

Please girls, I cannot stress enough how important it is to me that you learn your part perfectly for when we meet together on the 5th, which by the way is pushed to 7pm instead of 6 pm ( I know I know, this year is the year of changes back and forth....sorry) so that Aimee and I can be there. Please learn it, make sure that we don't have to waste the ballroom teams time, or your time going over it and spend the time cleaning it up instead. I spend a lot work on the production of the pageant and its really important to me that it looks professional and clean.

Good news and bad news :)

The good news is that we had enough girls want a modeling workshop so we'll work out a time that works for everyone....bad news is Andrea and the ballroom guys couldn't change the August 5th workshop so we're going to have to go back to it.  I think that I am making a record for most changed dates this year (I blame post baby brain for anyone that cares :).  I just won't be there, Andrea will just be in charge of making sure everything looks clean for me :)

SO....second production workshop changed back to:

AUGUST 5TH, 6 PM AT ONSTAGE DANCE STUDIO.

Couple of things...

#1 When I cancelled the makeup and hair workshop, I didn't realize that modeling was the combined with it.  SO....if there are more than one of you that would like to do one, I'll reschedule it...otherwise, we'll just keep it the way that it is.

#2 I rescheduled the second production number clean up rehearsal for the 5ht of August, I failed to remember that I am in charge of "Cedars Got Talent" that night and theres no way I can be there, so I think that I will ONCE AGAIN (sorry) reschedule it to the 6th.  Would you rather it in the day since its a weekend, or do you want to keep it at 6?  Leave a comment with what you'd rather and thats what we'll do.  Thanks for your patience girls.

#3 Just a friendly reminder that your paperwork is DUE ON FRIDAY, JULY 15TH AT THE PRODUCTION NUMBER REHEARSAL, AS WELL AS NEEDING TO BE REGISTERED WITH CMN. 

SECOND PRODUCTION REHEARSAL

RESCHEDULED TO AUGUST 6TH, (NOT AUGUST 5TH)
