This state has been without a director since before the national pageant. So they need a titleholder who is independent, resourceful, capable and self-sufficient. Let’s not forget the Volunteer pageant is only in its fifth year. It’s still growing so there’s always going to be potential for development and changes. But let’s try to be more supportive of the remarkable women who are taking on this challenge." on Sun December 01, 2024 11:50:18 [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |

| [> [> [> [> [> Subject: This was my thought! I didn't mean to sound like I was picking on her, but they've had native Miss Michigan Volunteers before, so why would they give Lydia the title? If they wanted to give her an opportunity at nationals, they could've given her a state like Maine or Nebraska that hasn't had consistent representation. | |

| [> [> [> Subject: I’ve also wondered this about Haleigh Hurst. How did she win Virginia when she’s from Texas and goes to college in Oklahoma. I heard she got accepted to law school in VA next year, but that wouldn’t qualify her for this year. And don’t believe online classes count either. And they even held a pageant with quite a few girls in it. Seems like Volunteer bends the rules for those they like. | |

| [> [> [> [> Subject: That's what I'm afraid of. I've been a volunteer girl through and through because of all the drama with MAO, but if they're gonna start blatantly picking and choosing girls for states instead of trying to grow a state Pageant, that's a huge bummer. | |

| [> [> [> [> Subject: I’ve wondered this myself. Don’t get me wrong, I love Haleigh and think she will probably win the national title, but I feel bad for the other girls who competed in the VA pageant who did meet the qualifications. Because it’s clear that Haleigh didn’t. She’s a Texas girl through and through. Not sure why she didn’t just compete in that state. | |
