New Pageant to be held

Re : Miss Charleston Belle 2013  contest.
 To All Contestants,

 This is to inform everyone concerned, that without going into detail it has been found that unfair practices were done during the pageant, and have therefore taken the decision to revoke the title and redo the entire ceremony. All prizes already given to the winners will NOT repeat  NOT be taken away from them, except of course the title Miss Charleston Belle 2013
          All contestants who entered  for the above competition are eligible to re-enter of course.
          We regret having to make this decision, and trust that all concerned will appreciate the reason for it.

 Details as to condition will remain the same, i.e. a short list of semi finalist will be selected from all applications, by a panel of judges,  those selected will be judged by a panel of independent judges to make a final choice of contestants.
 The finals will then be held within 7 days from the date of the semi finals, at The Dock Street Theatre on Charleston Belle.
