Welcome
This pageant is brought to you by the same directors that
have produced Tropical Dream Stars USA for the last 11
years! Welcome to the TDS sister pageant, America’s Grand
Miss National! AGM is very different from TDS but we feel
you will enjoy it just as much! We welcome each and every
one of you! This will be an exciting year, as we crown our
2008 National Grand Royalty! You may compete in beauty and
your choice of optionals to qualify for the supreme titles!
We are very proud to guarantee lots of cash prizes and top
quality custom created LOGO crowns! Our crowns are
breathtaking! We do not pro-rate. All prizes are guaranteed,
no matter how many contestants! Our judges will be looking
for a beautiful face. Please note that anyone may compete
and win at AGM, because expensive glitz attire is not what
our judges are looking for. This is not a natural pageant
system, styled hair and make up is absolutely allowed and
should flatter the contestant based on age. Please call
should you have any questions!
