NOTE: You still must contact the local director so that s/he may send you additional local requirements, including dates.
IMPORTANT: Remember to check the Miss NH dates. Do not wait until after you win your local title to find out that you cannot make a rehearsal date—as they are all mandatory once you get to the state level.
IMPORTANT: When submitting your application, please email a JPG headshot to the local director to which you are applying to, and copy it to ExecAssist@MissNH.Org at the Miss New Hampshire State Office.
