All Queens must agree to keep all internet sites, photos, media, etc… at a level that would not bring discredit to themselves or their title that they hold. In the event that a Queen gets involved in any situation that could bring into question any of the above issues it is the Queens responsibility to notify the Director in a timely manner, so that we do not hear of any issues or possible concerns from other sources 1st.  Situations will be addressed on a case by case basis. All Queens must understand and agree that, should the Miss Florida Palm Pageant system & director determine that your title be relinquished; Queens will be required to return all prizes given to her without reprisal. Depending upon the severity of the action or behavior, it could result in a permanent barrier from future competition in the Miss Florida Palm State Pageant system. If you should lose your State title, you will not be allowed to compete in the Miss Florida State Palm Pageant again!
