Contest Rules
The Board of Directors of the Greene County Fair
Association, Inc. reserves the right to change these rules as the situation
merits. This contest is
sponsored by the Greene County Fair and is held as a preliminary to the
Tennessee Fairest of the Fair contest, which is sponsored by the Tennessee
Association of Fairs.
The entry fee is $50.00. Only the first (15) fifteen qualified applicants to
submit entries will be accepted.
Each contestant must attend all practice sessions.
Missing a practice session could disqualify the contestant. All contestants and
their chaperons are invited to a tea on Sunday, August 5 at 2:00 p.m. at a
location to be announced.
Each contestant must be a resident of Greene County
and sponsored by a civic club, community club, a school, or parents. To qualify
as a resident of Greene County, an applicant/contestant must be domiciled in
Greene County (legal residence as distinguished from temporary place of
residence) for a minimum of 12 continuous months as of the date the
applicant/contestant files their entry to participate in the Greene County
Fairest of the Fair Contest.
Each contestant must have reached her 16th birthday
before the local pageant date, but not her 21st birthday, on December 31, 2018.
A contestant cannot qualify if she is or has been
married, or has children.
Contestants will be judged on beauty (50%) on poise
and personality (25%) and Interview (25%).
The winner will receive a $1000 College Scholarship, a
$500 clothing allowance for the state competition and will be sponsored by the
Greene County Fair at the State Pageant in Nashville in January. This trip is
worth approximately $1,500.00. The Fair will provide one hotel room.
The winner of that contest will receive the title of
Tennessee’s Fairest of the Fair and will receive such prizes as approved by the
Association. Contestants
will be presented in evening gowns. Costumes must be formal and must be floor
length. Contestants will not be allowed to wear or carry flowers during the
judging. Each contestant will receive two passes for the pageant.
The winner will be required to sign a contract
outlining her responsibilities and those of the Fair. She will be required to be
available to attend the fair and any scheduled activities as required by the
Directors during fair week, and throughout the year as the reigning Fairest of
the Fair.
