The Texas United States Pageants are still accepting applications for
entries. The Texas United States Pageants are a statewide event that honors
the state's loveliest ladies and sends the Texas representatives to the Ms.
United States, Miss Teen United States and Miss Teenage United States competitions.
According to Tracy Cris, Executive Director, "We have had a number of inquiries
from ladies in the area, but, as of today, no one has followed through."
There is still time for a contestant to step forward, but she will need
to act quickly. "I must have the completed application in hand no later than
July 15," said Cris. Contestants will have time to prepare, since the pageant
does not begin until Aug. 10.
Teenage delegates must be between 13 and 16, never married, never given
birth and a resident of Texas. Teen delegates must be between 17 and 19,
never married, never given birth and a resident of Texas. Ms. delegates must

Texas United States. Ladies interested are urged to contact Tracy Crist at
