Evening Gown Competition

The organizing committee has heard rumors that some of the princesses were a little uneasy with the evening gown portion of this year's pageant. Though we would be sorely disappointed to see anyone miss out on the chance to play dress-up when they're a grown-up, it is the choice of each individual princess whether or not to participate. This will not be a compulsory event.

If you are looking for a gown, I suggest Value Village, Salvation Army or What's In Store. Here is a link to a listing of consignment and thrift shops in Calgary.
