2022 State Competition Paperwork


​Congratulations and Welcome to the 2022 Class of Miss Minnesota! We are thrilled to have you with us. It is our goal to make this experience a rewarding one for you.

So that you can relax and compete to the best of your ability, we have quite a bit of paperwork to be completed as required by Miss America. Please go through each item, download documents, read, and respond as requested.
​
​This will take time!
Do not think you can complete this all in one night. It is a process. You will probably need the assistance of your Local Director.
For any Talent or production related questions, email Vicki at events@missminnesota.org.
​

Private Room Payment Link

For those of you who have opted to have your own room during competition week, there is a charge of $300. Please pay at this link. This fee is due by June 1, 2022.
​Thank you!

Make sure when filling out the online form that you list the State of Minnesota in the drop down box,
​or you will not get credit!  Please pay attention to the online form.

Each year, Miss America has had a requirement of each candidate competing for the State title, to raise a minimum amount before they compete. You may remember that for many years the task was to raise $500 for Children's Miracle Network.
Moving forward, Miss America is requiring each candidate to raise $325 for the Miss America state fee. This amount must be raised before you can check in and compete for Miss Minnesota. Here is the link to set up your State Registration Fee.  You can only pay via credit card and/or pay pal, and can't make multiple payments.  Only one $325 payment will be accepted.
