Fill out the Rosehip Kween Kontest Form and mail in to PO Box 451 Port Townsend, WA 98368. You will need to attend the Rosehip Kween Koronation and Kostume Ball (Saturday night, at the American Legion Hall) Pageant begins at 9 pm.  During the pageant you must:

*Tell one joke     *Share a recipe     *Demonstrate a talent or skill

Be Prepared ! Judges can (and do) "GONG" your act and pull you from the stage if they are bored or repulsed. Reflect Kinetic Spirit and keep it short! Bribes are essential. Lunacy is helpful. Remember mediocrity rules. Judges choose three finalists, then THE CROWD cheers for the winning Kween.

Should you be chosen Kween or Princess, you must:

Show up for the race on Sunday and act regal at all times.Be available for various parades, functions, and festivities:

*Port Townsend Rhody Parade ( in May )

*Uptown Street Faire ( in August )

*Next year's Rosehip Ball ( in Oct. )

And any other event you feel inspired to appear at.

YES, your "rain" extends until the next Rosehip Ball. Your Kweenly benefits include a Krown, a throne, and a new reputation. Your costume and attitude will be become the new outrage! Hundreds of weird people will bow to you with the Kinetic Chicken salute. There will be an "un-chickenly" number of photo-ops in strange places, so comb your hair and afix your krown. 

This is your chance for GLORY!
