MUST KNOW CONTEST INFO!

Outdoor Venue: Due to COVID-19, this year’s Fall Twirling Festival will be held outdoors at the Pickrell Park Pavilion. This space allows for plenty of distancing while still offering a high ceiling. 

One Costume: To keep things simple, and to prevent bathroom crowding/lines, each twirler should only wear one costume for all events. Plan ahead for which costume you will use. Also, all modeling events will be in this costume, even for Advanced pageant.

Bring Your Own Chairs: As there are not bleachers at the facility, and to allow for more spacing between groups, please bring your own chairs/seats. 

Event Food Options: There will not be a traditional concession stand, but they will have a food truck available for meals. It is suggested that attendees pack their own snacks and drinks as well. The park is huge and great for picnics between events!

COVID-19 Precautions: Masks are to be worn by all attendees, including twirlers, unless they are actively twirling. Please utilize hand sanitizer and maintain social distance wherever possible. 

Highlighted Event: 
The headline events for this contest will be the Fall Festival Majorette pageant and the Fall Festival Model Pageant. The contest is also offering first contest basic strut and first contest solo events.
