2008 PAGEANT
Contestants started the day with a horsemanship pattern, written test
and interview, and end with modeling, an impromptu question and a short
speech.  Contestants start practicing together weeks before the pageant
to fine-tune their skills for the final night.  For some contestants, it is
their first time to model, speak in front of an audience or undergo an
interview.
