The top 3 delegates will receive a prize package including cash and prizes for local businesses.
Is there a cost for delegates?
Yes. The 10 delegates chosen to compete will pay a $20 entrance fee after they are notified.
What does the contest consist of?
Delegates will compete in the usual pageant categories... with a U.P. twist: “Yooper Casual Wear,” “Yooper Formalwear,” “Yooper Swimsuit,” “Yooper Talent,” and off-stage & on-stage interview.
What makes each category “Yooper?”
The answer is YOU DO. We don’t give our delegates or judges any real criteria, because it is they who make the show. Our answer is always, “You’re a Yooper, so you bring what you want to bring to the show”. We didn’t know how it would turn out in the beginning, and each year we find ourselves surprised!
A total embrace and perfect balance of all around REAL Yooper culture & comedy. What will the delegates bring to the stage this year? Who is Robert Kemp going to hand the crown off to? Could it be you?
