2015-2016: Miss Pirate Princess Pageant
Your daughter has shown interest in participating in the 7th Annual Miss Pirate Princess Pageant at
Fairhope Middle School. This pageant has been a great success and we look forward to another
wonderful year!
The pageant will be held on Saturday, March 7th @ 6:00pm in the FMS cafetorium. Admission
will be $5.00 per person and each participant will be responsible for pre-selling at least five
tickets. Each participant will need a formal, floor-length gown for the Beauty Walk and an
appropriate outfit for her interview. There will not be a talent portion in the pageant. Each girl
will interview with the judges on the morning of Saturday, March 7th at Fairhope Middle School.
The Beauty Walk portion of the pageant will occur that evening.
During the pageant, not only will Miss Pirate Princess be crowned, but we will also have a winner
from each grade level (8th Grade Princess & 7th Grade Princess), as well as Miss Congeniality, Most Photogenic,
Best Interview and Most Poised.
Each contestant will need to complete and email me a copy of the attached Contestant
Biography and Contestant Interview forms-the editable form can be found on the school
website- and complete and return the signed ‘Permission Form’, as well as a $15 non-refundable
entry fee to Mrs. Lanicek no later than Friday, February 13th.
There will be an informative parent meeting on Wednesday, February 4th @ 3:15 in the FMS

may have regarding the pageant.
We look forward to working with all of the Princesses! If you have any questions, please contact
