We will crown one Elite Supreme (Overall Winner).  Elite Supreme Winner can be either male or female and is the highest score in Beauty and 3 Optionals.  The Elite Supreme will receive a beautiful crown, trophy, custom monogrammed satin sash, porcelain doll and paid registration fee to the next level of competition. 

In addition, we will award three Mini-Supremes in the following categories:  Baby (ages 0-3), Young Miss (4-13) and Miss (14 and up).  Mini Supreme Winners can be either male or female, and cannot have won Supreme.  Each of these winners will receive a lovely crown, trophy, custom monogrammed satin sash, porcelain doll and paid registration fees to the next level of competition. 

Each age/gender division will have a Divisional King or Queen.  Divisional winners will receive a lovely crown, trophy, custom monogrammed satin sash, porcelain doll and paid registration fees to the next level of competition. 

Anyone that is not crowned as Supreme or King/Queen will be crowned as a Prince or Princess.  All Princes and Princesses will receive a crown, sash and doll.

 (We reserve the right to pro-rate; that is, combine any and all divisions if necessary.  However, we will try to avoid doing this if at all possible.  Minimum of 5 contestants per division is necessary to avoid pro-rating). 

Age is based on the day of the pageant, with a two week grace period in either direction.  Please be prepared to prove age of competitor with a copy of your birth certificate, should a challenge arise.  Also be prepared to prove residency for your state. 

Beauty, plus your choice of 3 of the 12 optionals are required to win a Supreme title.  You may enter as many optionals as you wish and only your three highest optional scores will count toward the Supreme Titles.  (This is a great way to improve your chances for Supreme & get your lowest scores “tossed out”!) 

Overall optional winners will receive a crown, trophy and sash.  Winners may be either male or female.   

Age division optional winners will receive a certificate.  Winners will be chosen for each age and gender division. 

Beauty outfit can be Sunday Best, Formal Wear, Party Wear or Pageant Wear and is judged on personality, natural facial beauty & attire.  (Attire is based on age-appropriateness, fit and how well it compliments the wearer).  The outfit itself is not as important as the person wearing it! 

Optionals Available Are: 

Photogenic:  A head shot photo, 8 ½ x 11 or smaller.  No frames.  Color or black & white.  Contestant’s name and age on the back.  You may enter up to four photos and only the highest scoring one will count towards Supremes titles.  You must still enter at least two other optional categories, regardless of how many photos you enter, as each option is only counted once towards Supreme.  (You may not enter two photos and count that as two optionals)

Talent:  Three minutes max.  You may do TWO talents and only your highest talent score will count towards Supreme.  For each talent, bring two or more copies of tape, cued and labeled.  Bring back up tapes incase the first one breaks, etc.  You still must do at least two other optional categories, regardless of how many talents you enter, in order to qualify for Supreme.  (You may not enter two talents and count that as two optionals) 

Portfolio:  5-10 photos in an album or binder with contestant’s name and age indicated on it. 

Activity:  Scrapbook of achievements, community service, awards, sports, etc. 

Patriotic Wear:  Anything Red, White and Blue.  Be creative and have fun!  Straight runway walking and turns (no pro-am modeling).

Casual Wear:  Your favorite Christmas/Winter outfit.  Off the rack ONLY.  No pro-am modeling. 

Sportswear:  High glitz is definitely allowed.  Pro-am routines or anything-goes routines also allowed and encouraged. 

Personality:  Judged during an on-stage interview with the director.  This takes place immediately after you present your beauty/formal wear event.  Everyone will be briefed the day of the pageant on how this works, exactly.  For babies and younger children, a favorite toy in lieu of actual questions may be used (to see how the child interacts with the toy and the director). 

Most Beautiful/Handsome:  Judged on natural facial beauty and determined during beauty/formal wear event. 

Best Fashion:  Judged during beauty/formal wear event and based on age appropriateness, fit and how well it compliments the wearer (NOT on cost of garment, designer, etc). 

Best Model:  Judged during Beauty (there is no modeling score needed to win Beauty.  This is just an optional).

All American Artist:  Design and bring in a poster promoting All American Family California Pageants.  Will be judged on ability for age, creativity and overall appeal.  All entries will be on display during the pageant and will be kept by the pageant for display at future events!

All Optionals will be awarded on an Overall Basis (one overall winner in each optional category) AND on an age division basis. 

Please note that at NO TIME are bathing suits allowed onstage!!

Double Crown Policy: 

We do not double crown!  If you win Elite Supreme you are not also eligible to win Mini-Supreme or King/Queen.  If you win Mini-Supreme you are not eligible to win King/Queen.  The four Supreme titles will be placed as “Prince/Princess” until they are announced as Supreme winners.  Winning Supreme, King/Queen, etc does not have any effect on your ability to win Overall and/or Divisional Optionals.  The one exception to this rule is if there is only ONE person in a division AND they also win a Supreme title.  In that case, they may be crowned Queen (or King) of their division as well as Mini or Elite Supreme.  This keeps the level of surprise high for everyone.  "Hostess" title also has no bearing on any other titles and may be "double-crowned. 

If you win an optional on an overall basis, you will not be eligible to win it again at the age division basis.  Again, you will win the highest award you achieve.  Boys and girls compete equally for Grande Supreme, Mini-Supreme and Overall Optional awards. 

Judging Criteria: 

We are a family values oriented pageant system. We believe all contestants are beautiful and that each individual has a special and unique value. We offer a variety of different options (which apply toward Supreme), each weighted equally, so that contestants can choose their own areas of strength and put their best foot forward.

We seek to be represented by contestants who are naturally beautiful, inside and out. They have personality, character and a special quality that shines through. We want to see each one as an individual. We will not do any line-ups at this pageant. We want each contestant to be evaluated on his or her own merit and not compared to other contestants.

The Beauty score is determined based on three areas: Personality (as determined by interview. This is not an 'I.Q.' test but based on the personal appeal & character of each individual), Natural Facial Beauty ('pageant' hair and some makeup are allowed, but we prefer them to be age appropriate and to enhance the natural beauty of the contestant, not alter their appearance to look like an unnatural "standard." We do discourage "obvious" makeup, especially on babies & small children. Older girls are allowed a little more lee-way. Please, no fake tans, fake eyelashes, extensions, falls, etc. The point is that cosmetics should enhance, not alter, the appearance) and Attire (which is based on how well the clothing fits, how age appropriate it is and how well it compliments the wearer). We do not judge by the cost of the garment, who the designer is or how many beads are on the dress. A fancy pageant dress and a Sunday Best dress could be equally successful if they fit all of these criteria and if the contestant looks and feels great in them.

For photos we allow glamour type pictures and they can have fancy hair & makeup. However, we prefer photos that look "real" and not overly "retouched." Many pageant photographers automatically touch up the photos and we are not penalizing them for this. However, we prefer that the photo be an accurate representation of the person, as much as possible. We do not look for only the big name pageant photographers. A good photo from a local department store could be just as successful as a top pageant photographer. We are judging the photogenic merit of the person in the photo, not the skill of the photographer. There is no score for "eye contact." Smiling or serious photos are equally acceptable.

For modeling ability (and talent) we look at what they are able to do and how it relates to the age of the contestant. For beauty modeling, we prefer straight run-way, Miss America-type modeling. For the optional sportswear modeling event each contestant is allowed to choose his or her own modeling style. We do not add or subtract points for the style they choose, merely for how well they model for their age. (There is no "modeling" score for the beauty competition).

We especially like to see contestants who are attractive, personable, poised, confident and happy with themselves.

 

We will also award a “Host” or “Hostess” award, based on most referrals over 5 (6 or more).
