If you have any questions, you may contact her at 864-486-8652 or bellesmonarch@bellsouth.net and she will try to answer any of your questions. The money collected for the votes will be given to the 3 Chapters with the most votes. First place will receive 50% , second place will receive 30% and third place will receive 20% of all tickets sold for voting. Ex. if a total of 600 tickets are sold, that would be $600. 1st place would get $300, 2nd place $200 & 3rd place $100.
