MISS AMERICA'S OUTSTANDING TEEN PROGRAM ANNOUNCES
NATIONAL WORKSHOP TOUR

MAOT and Dolphin Entertainment partner for a six city workshop series

Miss America's Outstanding Teen announced today that for the first time ever, Miss America's Outstanding Teen, Inc. and Dolphin Entertainment are launching a nationwide tour of six cities! This unprecedented workshop series is designed to give contestants, their parents and pageant directors an inside look into the MAOT organization and the acting/audition process.

With breakout sessions addressing topics such as on-stage presentation, platform development, preparing for the Entertainment Industry and an in-depth look at the MAOT judging process, this is one workshop you won't want to miss! From beginner to "pageant pro," there will be something for everyone!

The workshop series will kick-off November 15th in Columbia, MD at the Sheraton Columbia Town Center. The day will consist of four different break-out sessions for participants.

Sessions will include:

  1. Working with the Camera: Participants will study improvisation as a tool to integrate the different styles and skills for acting in front of the camera for media, television, film, and reporting.
     

  2. Preparing for the Entertainment Industry: From the importance of first impressions and presentation to the truth about finding an agent and auditioning, participants will learn how to navigate a path through the confusing world of the entertainment industry.
     

  3. Establishing your Ideal Presentation: Participants will learn how to select and apply the right modeling, make-up, talent, etiquette techniques and overall
    style to best highlight their personal strengths. Whether on or off the
    stage, these presentation skills will last a lifetime.
     

  4. Navigate the Interview Room from all sides of the Table: This session
    will teach participants everything they need to know to take the mystery
    out of the interview process. Overall interview technique, paperwork
    completion, platform development and the Children's Miracle Network will
    all be discussed. Participants will also see an actual judges' ballot in
    order to learn the process from all sides of the interview table!

Registration materials will be available on Friday September 26th on the Miss America's Outstanding Teen website. Please click here for more information.

La Casa To Auction Celebrity Dresses

At the farewell luncheon sponsored by La Casa Hermosa for Caitlin Brunell, Miss America's Outstanding Teen 2008, Ami Manning presented over 50 dresses on behalf of Paris, Nicky and Kathy Hilton to Brunell for Caitlin's Closet. Brunell started Caitlin's Closet to be able to provide girls with dresses for special occasions that could not otherwise afford them thus raising their self esteem.

The dresses were divided and many of the remaining dresses will be auctioned off by Robin Fleming and La Casa Hermosa to raise money for Caitlin's Closet and MAOT. Funds raised for Caitlin's Closet will go to purchase specific sizes that are in popular demand. We are pleased to announce that the on-line bidding will begin Oct. 1st!
