How do you host a high school beauty pageant?

I have to host a beauty pageant at school and have no idea where to start. Has anyone hosted one? Where do I start and what do I need to do?How do you host a high school beauty pageant?
You'll most likely want to make a checklist.





- Panel of Judges


- Location where it will be hosted


- Setting a date


- Preliminary Tests for Contestants


- List of Essay Questions to ask Beauty Pageants


- Chaperones


- Finding local sponsorship


- Media and Publications (Local Newspapers and ads)


- Grading Criteria on what constitutes a Beauty Pageant Queen


- Optional Miss Congeniality


- List of Prices for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Place


- Contractual obligations of Pageant Entrants must sign


- List of dos and don'ts in the Contract Pageant Contestants sign





If this is for high school, I assume that your staff you take on will be volunteer or people at the high school helping you with this project. You don't want to be overburdened. So delegate certain tasks on people you know you can rely on.





Since this is high school, there most likely won't be a swimsuit competition so there will have to be some other way of measuring Physical Beauty in a tasteful way. The Panel of Judges will take care of that.





You may want to choose distinguished individuals within your community or from the high school staff willing to serve as judges. For the judges you choose, assign them to come up with 5 questions they'll want to ask testing the Intelligence of contestants.





Sponsorships and getting local advertising to help fund the event would help a lot if they can put up posters/banners or get mention of thanks for having donated money to allow the event to be possible.





You may want to try researching in your town. If you ask around, you may be able to find the people who do the local pageants when they select winners for the County. They may be able to give you some advice or tips.How do you host a high school beauty pageant?
Oh Boy, if I had to do that, I would (and pardon the expression) just throw up!
