A season in SashBoard
Scroll through the app the way your board, titleholders and families use it.
- 01
Everyone’s day, at a glance
Each person opens to what matters to them: the board to what needs a decision, a titleholder to her next appearance, a parent to what’s due.
- 02
The schedule everyone actually has
Rehearsals, appearances and show night with call times, who’s going, spots left and the weather. One tap to RSVP, and it’s on their phone’s calendar.
- 03
Messages without the group-text chaos
Board chats, titleholder groups and a private chat for each girl that her parents share. Mentions, voice notes, read receipts and quiet hours for teens.
- 04
Preparation that builds every week
Practice questions from the directors, her own stories to tell, and a mock interview on her phone or computer. Practice stays private, and there’s no score.
- 05
A year she can show
Every appearance reported with photos and confirmed by the board, adding up to hours served and people reached, and a Year in Review she can share.
Why it exists
A pageant season runs on volunteers, group texts and a lot of late nights.
Many local boards keep the season together with a shared drive, three group chats and one director who knows where everything is. SashBoard is for the parts that keep breaking.
“Did everyone turn in their forms?”
Each contestant has one checklist. She uploads from her phone, the board approves it, and you can remind everyone who still owes something at once.
“The time changed. Does everyone know?”
The pageant calendar lives on everyone’s phone and updates itself. RSVPs show who’s coming before you plan the rides.
“Which group chat was that in?”
Official messages go to the right people: the board, all contestants, the Teen group, or one contestant and her parents.
“Where’s drop-off? What do I pack?”
Competition week gets one page for families: drop-off and pick-up, when they can watch, packing lists, rides and who to call.
Show night on clipboards
The run of show, the emcee script and the talent music in show order, followed live by the crew on their phones.
Cash in a box at the door
Tickets online and at the door, Wallet passes, check-in and People’s Choice, paid straight into your own Stripe account.
What else is in it
Both plans include all of it.
- Applications and paperwork
- An application on your website, then each contestant’s forms, fees and signatures in one checklist.
- Appearances and service hours
- Titleholders log each appearance; the board confirms it; hours and people reached add up all year.
- Interview practice
- Questions from the directors, her own stories and timed answers. Private to her, and never scored.
- Messages
- Group and private conversations, voice notes, polls and quiet hours for teens.
- The lottery and show night
- The contestant-number draw on a big screen, the run of show, the emcee script and the results.
- Tickets and the door
- Online sales, card readers at the door and a check-in that works without signal.
- Fundraising
- Donations, a store, a silent auction, sponsors and program book ads, tracked against your goal.
- Your own website
- A site for your pageant with your titleholders, events and sponsors, at your own address.
Titleholders
Her year, adding up as she goes
Every confirmed appearance counts toward her service goal. At the end of her year she gets a Year in Review to share, and the board gets an annual report written for them.
Who makes SashBoard
Built by a pageant board member
When I joined the board of a local Miss America organization in Utah, I kept hearing the same complaints: the schedule changed and not everyone knew, there were dozens of group texts going at once, and paperwork was spread across different file-sharing apps.
I wanted to bring all of it together and make the work more manageable for the volunteers who run the program. That’s where SashBoard was born.
If you run a pageant and any of this sounds familiar, I’d love to hear from you.

Built for teens’ information
Most of the people in a pageant are young women, many under 18. SashBoard is built around that.
We never ask for sensitive numbers
No Social Security numbers, no ethnicity, no bank details. When a form needs them, directors collect them in person, not in the app.
Parents are in the loop
A contestant’s parent or guardian sees her schedule, what’s due and her private conversation with the board.
Only what each person needs
Titleholders, contestants and parents see their own information. Contact details and files stay with the board.
Private things stay private
Wardrobe, personal folders and private messages are seen only by her, her parent and the directors.
Your pageant, walled off
Every pageant’s information is kept separate from every other pageant’s, and files are private by default.
No scoring, no judging
SashBoard doesn’t score or judge contestants. Mock interviews get notes on what went well, never a number.
Questions
Who pays for SashBoard?
The pageant does, after a 30-day free trial. Contestants, titleholders, parents, sponsors and fans never pay for SashBoard.
Can we see it before we sign up?
Yes. Request a demo and we’ll show your board SashBoard live, around how your pageant runs, and answer your questions. Or start the 30-day free trial and try it with your own season.
Is our ticket and vote money ours?
Yes. You connect your pageant’s own Stripe account, and every sale is paid straight into it. On Local, SashBoard’s 1% is taken at the time of the sale; there’s none on State.
What happens after the 30 days?
Your plan starts and your card is charged, unless you cancel before then. If a pageant stops paying, its portal closes for everyone until the plan is renewed. Nothing is deleted, and renewing opens everything right back up.
Can we change plans or cancel?
Anytime, from Settings › Plan & billing in your portal on the web. Changes are prorated, and cancelling stops the next charge. Our refund policy has the details.
Is it safe for teens’ information?
Each pageant’s information is walled off from every other’s, members see only what their role needs, files are private by default, and SashBoard never asks for Social Security numbers or ethnicity. SashBoard is for members 13 and older. More on safety.
How do we move over from spreadsheets and group texts?
Start with your board and this season: add your events and invite your titleholders, and their contestants’ applications come in through your own application page. You don’t have to move everything at once, and we’re happy to help you set up.
Do you help us get set up?
Yes. Request a demo before you start, or send us a question anytime.
Is there an iPhone app?
It’s coming soon to the App Store. Until then, everyone in your pageant uses the portal in any browser, on any phone or computer.
