This past weekend I attended the Mrs., Miss and Miss Teen Colorado International 2008 pageant. The final competition and crowning was in Loveland at a small high school gym on Saturday night from 7-9 p.m. My friend and I went, not knowing what to expect. We were writing an article about the pageant for the Clarion, so we needed to get a feel for the atmosphere and competitors. Shockingly, we were the only media coverage present, and when we went online to find more information we came up pretty short. There is a website for the international pageant, but it only shows the competitors that make it past the state level. The website is pretty crude and not updated regularly. Even now, they do not have the results posted from Saturday. The only really interesting part of the website was that it allows viewers to vote for their favorite contestant. With all the digital capabilities, I find it interesting that the pageant is not more inventive, especially considering the emphasis they place of the vocalization of platforms.
