COSBY-Entries are now being taken for the On Cosby beauty pageants on October 20.

Pageant categories for girls are divided into the following ages: 0-11 months, 12-23 months, 24-35 months, 3-4 years, 5-6 years, 7-9 years, 10-12 years, 13-15 years, and 16 years and older.

Currently only one category for boys, ages 0-3 years, is scheduled, but if enough entries are received before the deadline, this group may be divided.

In addition to the traditional pageants, awards will also be given in a special competition, "Hillbilly Wear," a fun event for contestants to show off their true hillbilly spirit.
