DIVISIONS
Kona’s Premier Youth Competition featuring the Youngest of the Hawai’i Island young ladies ages 5-17
Mini Miss Kona Coffee (5-6)
There is no doubt that this age group is the most fun! Everything they do is cute and adorable, resulting in less stress for stage and performance concerns. What these girls really want is to wear a little crown. What is important, is to recognize signs of gifts, talents and interests early in their lives and to encourage them to practice to make as perfect as can be. Testing their attention span and cooperation with new peers can help them to be comfortable on stage with a live audience. Whether it is in a private interview or in front of hundreds of people, they will gain skills and make new friends.
Little Miss Kona Coffee (7-9)
Whether self or parent motivated, each girl competes to win, while refining her talent, poise and speaking skills. She will be bonding with the other pageant sisters, who are practicing hard, too. This enriching experience can be a lot of fun as they learn new ways of walking, posing, modeling and public speaking. Self awareness is definitely recognized as well as strengths, weaknesses and tenacity. This experience is a gift they will be grateful for, that will benefit them in many ways for the rest of their lives.
Young Miss Kona Coffee (10-12)
Almost a teenager, and just starting to develop physically, this range is important especially for those who have never been in a pageant program like LMKC before. They say, by age 12, it is vital to give children public speaking experiences, helping them to be greater leaders in all opportunities. Expecting more from each girl in speech to talent can be challenging, but also very rewarding with a major sense of accomplishment. Young Miss division is designed to capture the love of this program that can be carried on to the next exciting division and is a positive experience that can benefit them for the rest of their lives.
