Gallery - State Competition
2008

Take a tour of the fun, excitement, and experience contestants and royalty have while participating in Arizona American Coed Pageant activities!  We've collected a few pictures that represent the type of things you'll be involved with in the American Coed Pageant program.  Take a look!

We're just starting on the 2008 page.  Check back later to see what other pictures we post!

This year's event was held at the Sheraton Phoenix Airport Tempe hotel.  They provided great service to our pageant and those who participated in the pageant, and we thank them for everything they did making our stay a pleasure.  They're hospitality and friendly attitude was so impressive, many of the existing queens selected some of their staff to escort them on stage!

Modeling is one fun event in the pageant where the girls strut to catwalk music having a great time.

During extended judge deliberations on a finale tie, the girls entertained themselves and the crowd.

   
   
Most of the 2007 queens enlisted one of their favorite hotel staff members for their on-stage escort.
