Los Angeles, CA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 04/29/2019 -- National American Miss (NAM), the nation's largest pageant system for girls, is hosting open calls in California! NAM is a pageant that celebrates each girl's unique natural beauty and abilities, while empowering her to unleash her full potential wherever life takes her.

Celebrating its 17th birthday, NAM annually awards over $1,000,000 a year in cash, awards, prizes, scholarships, and more. Each girl who participates will gain confidence, self-esteem, communication skills, self-assurance, and especially…friends and memories that last a lifetime! The open call process introduces girls ages 4 to 18 years old to the Miss California program and provides them with all the exciting details they need to become a state finalist.

Each of the Miss California competitions challenges and encourages young ladies in every part of their lives. They will learn that they are never too young to do whatever they set their minds to. The goal of National American Miss is to, "encourage America's future leaders and equip them with valuable life skills like communicating effectively during an interview and presenting themselves in a positive confident way."

National American Miss is quite different than a "beauty pageant". This unique organization fosters positive self-image and focuses on a girl's natural beauty, using a recurring theme of "keeping it real". This can especially be seen in the "no-makeup" rule for girls younger than 13 years of age. Most importantly, there is NO swimsuit competition for any of the age groups. Instead, the girls will be scored in four categories: Formal Wear Modeling (30%), Personal Introduction (30%), Interview (30%), and Community Service Project (10%). Therefore, girls of all shapes and sizes, with varying looks and backgrounds, are all on an equal playing field in this competition.

One of the best features of NAM is that no prior pageant experience is required! The goal of National American Miss is to help girls grow skills and confidence that they can use for the rest of their lives; not only in a pageant setting. After attending an open call, NAM provides an interactive training session, where each state finalist has the opportunity to practice each area of the Miss California Pageant. National American Miss' friendly and supportive staff members are ready and willing to guide each girl through her entire pageant experience.

The girl that earns the title of Miss California, in each age division, will represent California at the national pageant. Nationals are held annually Thanksgiving week, in Anaheim, California. In addition to cash, trophy, crown, banner, and roses; the new Miss California prize package includes her entry fees to the national pageant, airfare to Hollywood, and a day at Disneyland®!

Do you have a young lady in your life that that you believe in… NOW is the time to instill a newfound sense of purpose of who she is and what she can achieve? If you do, encourage that future leader to attend an open call by signing up at namiss.com/CA.

Houston, TX -- (ReleaseWire) -- 04/01/2019 -- The National American Miss (NAM) pageant is unlike other "beauty pageants". Instead of focusing on a girl's exterior beauty, NAM honors each contestant's natural talent, poise, and inner beauty, while encouraging her to "unleash her full potential" - NAM's empowering motto.

The National American Miss competition is designed to allow each contestant to showcase her presentation and communication talents, as well as her understanding, compassion, and benevolence. Without relying on artificial or tacky elements, such as swimsuits and scantily clad outfits, participants can display what it truly means to be a trailblazer.

One of the best aspects of a NAM competition is that makeup is not allowed for contestants under the age of 12. While other pageants allow girls of all ages to apply heavy makeup, wigs, and other artificial accessories, National American Miss helps girls hone their skills and natural beauty that can help lead to future successes.

Each contestant is judged on four categories in a National American Miss pageant: formal wear (30%), personal introduction (30%), interview (30%), and community involvement (10%). It's these categories that allows participants to be a platform for personality, self-confidence, and dedication. In addition, it's NAM's diversity that sets them apart from other competitions. Contestants from various backgrounds, cultures, looks, ethnicities, shapes, and sizes learn life skills and develop lifelong experiences.

Unlike other competitions, NAM requires no prior experience in pageantry. Why? Because NAM's experienced staff prepares each girl for proper stage techniques, interviews, and every aspect of competition. In addition to building real world skills, NAM believes that diligence and commitment helps participants learn what it takes to succeed. National American Miss celebrates each girl's individuality leading to over 1 million dollars in scholarships awarded each year. Each competition will lead one remarkable girl closer to being crowned NAM Queen.

The ultimate winner of NAM's pageant will receive a myriad of prizes and awards, including a $5,000 scholarship and the opportunity to embark on a nationwide journey as Queen representing all girls throughout the U.S. In addition, during NAM's National Pageant Week, she will enjoy 2 tickets to a VIP day at Disneyland®, and finally crowing her successor at the following year's national pageant.

National American Miss (NAM) Open Calls Are Beginning for 2019

Houston, TX -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/06/2019 -- The National American Miss (NAM) is a pageant unlike any other, a new type of pageant for a new generation of girls. The primary goal of NAM is to grow confidence in teens and pre-teen girls across the U.S. and teach real world skills.

NAM's focus is on fostering positive self-image by enhancing the natural beauty within. Girls of all shapes and sizes, with varying looks and backgrounds, are all on an equal playing field in this competition.

On January 18-20, 2019, the 12 girls who were crowned as the 2018 National winners participated in the "National American Miss Photoshoot" in Houston, Texas. This glamorous photo shoot was part of their prize package as 2018 NAM winners. Additionally, their photos will be showcased in the NAM Magazine, online, and on social media.

Over the coming weeks, the official search for 2019 contestants is scheduled to begin with open calls for state competitions happening all over the country. Unlike old-style beauty pageants, the National American Miss competition doesn't rely on skimpy outfits, a lot of makeup, or silly, canned questions.

NAM Offers A New Type of Competition For Girls

While there are many aspects of NAM that break from the old mold, three main differences are apparent from the start:

- Minimal or No Make Up: There is a no makeup rule for contestants under 12. This enables each contestant's true beauty to shine. Instead of only emphasizing exterior traits, NAM asks girls to dig deeper, to develop the poise and confidence that will help them throughout their future education and careers.

- No Swimsuits: There are also no swimsuits in this contest. Instead, NAM categories are designed to test each girl's communication and presentation skills. NAM's four main categories include: formal wear (30%), personal introduction (30%), interview (30%), and community involvement (10%). These allow every contestant to shine by being evaluated on poise, personality, communication, confidence, and a willingness to help others.

- All Girls Are Eligible: No prior pageant experience is necessary to compete. NAM's skilled and caring production team will walk contestants through every step of the program. NAM firmly believes that with hard work and dedication, every girl has what it takes to succeed regardless of her previous experience.

The Benefits of Participating in NAM Are Lifechanging

The NAM prize packages literally change the girls' lives. In addition to a generous $1.5M in scholarships awarded annually, NAM offers the priceless opportunity for girls to sharpen presentation and public speaking abilities, all while forging friendships that will last a lifetime. This age-appropriate contest helps girls develop their competitive skills in a supportive environment.

Each year, one exceptional girl rises above the rest to be crowned NAM Queen. In addition to a $5,000 scholarship, she will enjoy a summer representing girls of all backgrounds as she travels the country in her duties as Queen. She will also have the opportunity of a lifetime to travel to Hollywood, California, and enjoy a VIP tour of Disneyland in the Fall before she returns to crown her successor.

Age divisions include:
Princess: Ages 4, 5 and 6
Jr. Pre-Teen: Ages 7, 8 and 9
Pre-Teen: Ages 10, 11 and 12
Jr. Teen: Ages 13, 14 and 15
Teen: Ages 16, 17 and 18
Miss: Ages 19-24

Houston, TX -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/28/2017 -- National American Miss (NAM), the nation's largest pageant for girls is currently having open calls in Texas. NAM has been around for over a decade and continues to award over $1,000,000 a year in cash, awards, scholarships, and prizes. The girls will gain confidence, self-esteem, poise, communication skills, and above all…friends and memories that last a lifetime!

One of the best things about NAM that you don't get from other pageants is that all costs for the pageant are disclosed upfront, and there are no hidden fees. In addition, since NAM focuses on a girl's natural beauty, there is a "no-makeup" rule for girls ages 12 and under. Most importantly, there is NO swimsuit competition for any of the age groups. Instead, the girls will be scored in 4 categories: formal wear (30%), personal introduction (30%), interview (30%), and community involvement (10%).

The NAM's highly praised production team is the heart and soul of the organization. They go above and beyond to make each and every pageant unlike any other. Best of all…no prior pageant experience is required! You will receive all of the information and help you need prior to the pageant.

The girl that earns the National Title for National American Miss will travel across the country, during the summer, representing the National American Miss Pageant Program. During the week of Thanksgiving, she will take an all-expense paid trip to Anaheim, California to attend the National Pageant. During this time, she will not only crown her successor, but she and a guest will receive a tour of the famous and historic Hollywood and enjoy a special day at Disneyland®!

So, get ready! Any girl is welcome to compete. Head to the next open call, and YOU could unleash your potential and don the next crown!
