1- Read through the website to find out: What My Girl is about, if this is a good program for you and what's required if you should be selected to represent your city. Email us with any questions you may have. We also encourage you to compare us with other similar programs, we want to be a good match for our delegates. We are over 350 delegates strong! We are so proud of all of them!

2- If you would like to be considered for your city title submit the online application found on your division page. There is no fee to apply, but we do ask that only serious applicants apply.  It takes a lot of staff time to sort through applications, and if we are going to keep our "no application fee" policy and our costs low for participants, we prefer that only serious candidates apply.

3- Our National Director and/or Assistant National director will review all applications, usually within 24 hours.  City delegates are selected by the National Director and/or Assistant National Director based on information provided on the application.

4-If you or your child is selected to represent your city, we will notify you via email usually within 24 hours of reviewing your application. If you do not hear back from us within that time, please don't hesitate to contact us, we welcome follow ups.

5- If selected, YOU MUST notify us within 24 hours of your intentions to accept the title and to let us know which sash package you would like to order for you/your daughter's appearances. Due to the popularity of our program if you do not respond, we reserve the right to select an alternate child for the city title if we do not hear back from you within 24 hours time. We only select ONE delegate per division, per city/and or county so we don't want to keep the opportunity from an interested applicant if you are no longer interested. We felt this was the most fair way to ensure that all those that want to participate will have the opportunity if available. 

Official My Girl sashes ARE required for participation, tiaras are optional.  Once you inform us as to which sash package you would like for your appearances, we will send an invoice through PayPal. We only accept PayPal for their outstanding service, and transaction security for our delegates and our pageant. PayPal is a free service for our delegates to use, we pay all fees for utilizing the service.

6-  Normal turn around for sash customization is @ 3 weeks. Once your tiara and sash are back from customization, we will email you to let you know we are shipping your items which will usually only take 3-4 days from here.  Please do not schedule ANY events until you have received your items, or at least the email with your shipping notice. We will send via email, a printable informational pack when we ship your sash, that gives great tips on making appearances, appearance safety, announcing your title, finding contact information for parades, community events and guidelines for submitting your photo for use on our website.

7- HAVE FUN! Get out there and get involved! Keep a good journal of your activities. Email us with updates, we'd love to post them on our website to inspire visitors and other delegates! We welcome updates and pictures, and we even have a Queen's Spotlight section to highlight each of our delegates who are making a difference.

8- State and National Level Competition:

We send all local title holders information regarding their next level of competition in advance so they have plenty of time to apply for their next level title.  All criteria is found on the official rules page of our website, for each division and more information can be found on individual division pages as well.  As for state and nationals, there are no application fees.  A panel of 3 trained judges will decide on state, and national winners.

9- Enjoy this experience, know that every minute of your time that you give to your community means so much to those around you!
