This spring, women from every corner of the state will convene in Wichita for a different kind of pageant. Says Executive Director Kimberly McDowell, “ the pageant is a celebration of today’s women. You will see contestants of all heights, weights, races, nationalities and backgrounds participating in the Kansas US Pageants.” The judging categories consist of casual wear, evening gown, and interview. There are several divisions:
Kansas Ms. Elite U.S.
(Ages 18-Up May Be Divorced, Single with Child, Widowed)
Kansas Mrs. U. S.
(Ages 18-Up Must Be Legally Married and Living With Spouse )
Kansas Ms. Classic U.S.
(Ages 18-Up Must Be Size 14 or Larger, Married, Single, Divorced)
Kansas Ms. Elegant U.S.
(Ages 40-Up, May Be Married, Single or Divorced)
The winner of each division will win a prize package valued at over $5000 including competition wardrobe when she goes to compete at the national America’s US Pageants held in MS summer, 2010. We want to acknowledge the women of our state who are achievers and activators in their community.
