Miss Czech-Slovak Wisconsin Queen's Royal Court (Junior Royalty)
The Queens' Royal Court was designed for young women between the ages of 13-17 to provide a training ground for being a potential Queen Candidate when they become old enough. We have expanded this to include young men (even though not able to run for WI State Queen) of the same age who want to explore their Czech, Slovak, Moravian, Silesian, or Rusyn Heritage. Candidates will complete a private interview, kroje modeling, and a talent. Successful candidates will receive a sash and a tiara. Young women and men may take part in the Royal Court more than once (but will only receive one sash/tiara/crown regardless of how many years they participate). Candidates will receive constructive feedback from the advisors. If a candidate already has a sash and tiara/crown from past years, she/he is encouraged to wear them.
