How do I become Miss Keystone State?

The Miss Keystone State goes to the contestant that sells the most ad pages. A minimum of eight (8) pages must be sold to qualify for this title. No paperwork needs to be filled out for this competition, nor is there a fee for participation. After selling 3 ad pages each contestant that participates will earn a cash scholarship at the pageant. The person that sells the most pages will win the crown, sash, and registration to nationals and a place with the titleholders! Yes, you are going to nationals, so get ready, sell your ads and join us as Miss Keystone State! YOUR official job will be to tour the state for one year and represent the CROWN CARES as a role model to all Pennsylvania residents along with our new state titleholders. If you choose not to attend nationals you will still receive the prizes for your sold pages level and the delegate with the next highest number of sold pages that qualifies will receive the state title. If there is a tie for first place, the winner will be determined by the one that has the highest accumulative interview score.
