The Miss Black Rock City Project kicked off the 2006 season in Texas at Flipside again this year, where the beauties were plentiful, and the water was fine! Stay tuned for the exciting post pageant report, and the announcement of the MBRC summer schedule – we have something in NYC for the kids, and *three* on playa events for all of you!

Unfortunately StacycatS (that's me - your pageant producer/host extraordinaire) can't be everywhere. But this shouldn't stop each community from celebrating its own with a Pageant of Inner Beauty!

This is why the Miss Black Rock City Project is proud to announce:

Miss Firefly 2006 at the New England regional burn. Hosted by SuzQ! aka Miss Fubar 2004. This is Miss Fubar's first time hosting a MBRC pageant – be sure to give her lots of love!

Represent your camp, your village, your region, your tent, or just yourself. Participation for Miss Firefly 2006: Pageant of Inner Beauty is open to all women and men of any (or no) sexual preference and/or identity.

MISS FIREFLY 2006
Sunday, July 2
3:30pm, Mainstage

All you need to enter is a title starting with the prefix "Miss" and a sash that states this title! That's right, I said "Miss". Not Mr., not Mrs., not Ms. Why? Because we are all "amiss" here, baby!

Participants will complete a short obstacle course of 3 "burner type" tasks, so we can see how you groove. Finalists* will then be chosen to move on to the main event where they will display their unique inner beauty in these three categories:

*Flywear: Just how fly are you!?

*2 Minute Talent Competition: No rules other than the time limit. We insist everyone has a talent: be it a stupid party trick or a fine art!

*Interview: Do you do it for world peace, the children, or for the puppies? Perhaps something else drives you? Tell us what it is in your interview answers!

Take a look around our site http://www.missblackrockcity.com for our FAQ, event photos, stories, our theme song, and other bits of anti-corporate beauty propaganda.

More info on the Firefly event can be found here: http://fireflyartscollective.org/

DISCLAIMER: No beauty pageant is fair. Bribes are accepted. Participate for fun, rather than play to win!

Subject: Fwd: MISS FIREFLY!!! woo-HOOOOOOOO

A ride down to the car by Fuse at 730 and after hitting another shugah shack
maplesyrupsoft icecream - called creemees), Elly and I headed towards Camp
Dionysia (Catskills). Everyone said: how was FIREFLY - we heard it was a
disaster?!?!

It was so difficult to explain that in SPITE of the rain, and mud, and towing,
and bug lighting stubborness thatFirefly was AMAZING!! Some of the most fun was
doing greater/leaver shift pre NOAH's Ark rain on Saturday for 4 hours!

I was so pleased and proud of the Miss Firefly Pageant (part of the Miss Black
Rock City pageant system) - the staff, judges, contestants! I was not sure it
was going to happen -and then! poof! it unwrapped itself with an amazing group of
contestants (please each of you get in touch with me with your *real*
names/emails for archiving purposes) judges, wranglers.

AND AUDIENCE - standing on cinderblocks in the mud, sitting in mud, ankle deep in
mud. CHEERING in MUD!! Pictures will go up on the boston site soon (thank you
picture taker!)

Many many many thanks to the people who worked behind the scenes on getting MISS
FF up and going:

Stacycats (Miss BRC infinity), John Major (judge and SuzQ! wrangler), Katie
Hazzard (judge and location scout), Sandy (judge and inputter), Ben G. (Judge and
Miss AutoSub 2005), January-Febuary (the BEST and most beautiful Stagemanager
evah) Spank my Glitch and Rob for scheduling us on your stages.

A special thanks to Miss??? who brought me the Rose's Tequila in the middle of
the pageant - just because she thought I could use a drink!!!
