 MISS AMERICA'S OUTSTANDING TEEN PROGRAM ANNOUNCES
FOURPOINTS MAGAZINE AS SPONSOR

Kasie Bomer Smith, publisher of a Miss America's trade publication
will share secrets to success

Orlando, FL – July 24, 2008 - Miss America's Outstanding Teen (MAOT) organization announced  that fourpoints Magazine will sponsor a dinner at Maggiano's on August 10th from 6-10pm. Kasie Bomer Smith, publisher of fourpoints, will be the keynote speaker for the event. The bi-monthly publication produced by Serendipity Publishing of Michigan focuses on the latest news in the Miss America and MAOT organizations. 

MAOT, the "little sister" to Miss America, will host its national competition in Orlando during the week of August 12-16, 2008 with 52 state representatives competing in various competitions for a chance to win over $30,000 in college scholarships and the title of Miss America's Outstanding Teen. 

The competition will be held in the Linda Chapin Theatre at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando. 

Smith will be discussing what she refers to as the "Pageant Permanent Record." As a former titleholder herself, she thinks it is important to discuss the significance of being a titleholder and what it can do for you, even after you give up the crown.

"Wherever you go, as a titleholder, you leave an impression," Smith said, "and all of those impressions add up to become your permanent record. I will encourage titleholders, and parents and volunteers, to think about what kind of permanent record they would like to leave behind."

In addition, fourpoints will be raffling off six tickets to Universal Studios to those who subscribe to the magazine that evening.

"fourpoints has chosen to be involved with the MAOT program and sponsor the Maggiano's dinner not only because we believe in the mission of the program, but because we believe in giving the readers of fourpoints magazine an inside look at all things Miss America, and that includes MAOT," said Kasie Bomer Smith.

In addition to sponsoring an event, fourpoints will have a booth located at the MAOT Trade Show at the Rosen Centre Hotel from Tuesday, August 12th- Saturday, August 16th.  The trade show is open to the public and fourpoints will be giving away complimentary copies of their publication to the first few hundred visitors. 

On Saturday, August 16th fourpoints magazine will hold an autograph signing event for their cover model winner at the Linda Chapin Theatre prior to the Miss America's Outstanding Teen competition.  The autograph signing event will begin at 6:45PM and the competition will start at 8PM.  Sean Durrett, of Texas, was chosen as the 2008 Make Me A Cover Model Winner.   Sean has held the titles of Miss Lubbock's Outstanding Teen 2006, Miss Dallas' Outstanding Teen 2007, Top 10 at Miss Texas' Outstanding Teen 2007, and is currently Miss Lubbock 2008.
