This business needs kids who are not shy and I think that is what the (USA Bee Kidz Pageant) do for them. The positive side of the pageants is that the kids just go for it and they are not shy. As a result, they are easy to mold."- Karen Bradford, Publicist celebrities such as Dakota Fanning & Hilary Duff
"My son, daughter and I had lots of fun at your pageant. We enjoyed it very much and thought your pageant was very different than the other ones we had been in. Thanks again for some great memories." -Lilli
WHAT FOLKS ARE SAYING ABOUT THE USA BEE KIDZ PAGEANT...
"Your pageant offers so much more than the typical children's pageants and baby/ kid model searches. Those other pageants lead one to believe that your child will be a star but after their event you realize they were only there for the money. This is not the case with the USA Bee Pageant- you have great connections and truly are there for the kids. We can't thank you enough. Yo have given our child a start in a possible career but most importantly a lifetime of memories! You truly cater to kids!"- Rosanne
"Thanks for the bags and bags full of stuffed animals that you [USA Bee] brought to CAST....Your gift helped us a lot!!!...This is the largest amount of stuffed animals that we have received at one time since CAST first opened. We appreciate that more than you know. You [USA Bee Pageant] help us reduce the trauma for these children as they go through the investigation process."

Dear Dr. Phill,
Let me start by telling you that my family and I love you. A few months back you had a program about beauty pageants. I agree whole-heartedly about how most pageants exploit young children. What I am about to tell you is going to blow you away. My children are apart of a pageant. However, this pageant is not like any pageant you have ever experienced.
The USA National Bee pageant is completely natural. My oldest daughter won by wearing her motocross outfit. These are great representations of who my girls are. There are no glitzy dresses, false teeth and hair, and no fake tans. We are involved with the Ronald McDonald House foundation. All the children with cancer have been crowned honorary Kings and Queens. We are also involved with C.A.S.T. (Child Abuse Service Term). We have donated over 500 stuffed animals to help ease a child’s pain. Mrs. California 2000 Jenny Lee and Mrs. America 2005 Andrea Peause both support the USA National Bee Pageant and what beeing all that you can bee means.
We believe that by letting your hearts shine through and helping others, beeing the best that you can bee, is a far better gift then winning a crown for wearing the most expensive dress or falsifying your appearance with prosthetics.
(In regards from one of our queens being in a movie)
Hey Jenny,
.....it was great. After we arrived on set, they placed us in front of a stage and told us to act uninterested in the artist. .....After a couple takes of that, they let us have a small break and then they took a few of us and put us on the beach "behind" the stage to make it look like a normal beach. ......... After that, they fed us lunch and played a few games. More like contests, such as best singer, best impression, wierdest thing ......After that, they put us infront of the stage again. They had us act bored and then after a few lines, we had to go crazy! Two HUGE beach balls were being throne around, too. A character had to get hit in the head by them. That took a few takes. They let us sit down again and asked me and a bunch of other girls to act like we were signing up for the talent show that was going on. I was thrid in line. One character is the senator from Texas and she came and talked with us for a while. ........ Thanks for asking me to do this. It was great. See you in the movie!
Luv, Taylor

"I cannot say thanks enough.....don't know if I mentioned to you before but I had put Artises in (other local well known kids pageants) and now the bumble bee....this by far was the best!!!!"
- Sonia (parent)
Jenny & everyone at Bee USA
We can not begin to tell you how much fun today was for our family!! Our 2 little boys had such a great time & everyone was just wonderful!! My son loved all of the attention & are so proud of all of his awards! He is still wearing his "pretties" (metals) ! Today was one of the greatest days of my son's life! He felt like such a star & we were so happy to see him having so much fun on stage- he know each award he won too!! He is so proud of himself & wants to know when he gets to see all of his new friends again :) I didn't mentions my son's condition before the pageant as it wasn't relevant then. But now that you got to meet him & see what an amazing person he is I can fill you in. He had a seizure on June 3rd of this year. That was a Saturday- by Monday we were admitted to CHOC & it was discovered that he has a pretty large cystic mass in his brain that is causing the seizures..... The amazing thing is- with the condition he has he should have difficulty walking, talking, & etc. O the contrary he is well advanced in all areas.....All of this is pretty new to us so we are just taking it in stride. We keep his life a normal as we can & keep on going. .....As you might have guessed seeing both the boys on stage was a thrill for my husband & myself. But seeing him enjoying life & soaking in so much love & attention was beyond anything we can put into words. There were tears of joy & so much more!! We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for putting together such a great Pageant & we look forward to all of the upcoming activities that we will get to participate in. He is already asking "what's next"... Thank you again & we look forward to seeing you soon!
"Dear Usa Bee Kidz,
Thank you for your generous donation of $260.00 to the United Nations Foundation, in support of the Nothing But Nets campaign. Since every $10 we raise delivers a bed net to a family at risk from malaria, you’ve just made a big difference.
Soon, the nets you’ve helped purchase will be delivered to families in Africa through countrywide campaigns organized by the Measles Initiative, a partnership among UN agencies and private sector partners. We’ll be in touch as we get stories, photos, and videos of the nets and their new homes. Thanks again for your gift, and being a part of Nothing But Nets.
Sincerely,
Ted Turner
