First I want to tell you what the purpose is of preparing your platform statement. When most young ladies enter a pageant they are required to have a platform. And a platform can consist of something that you believe in very strongly, it can consist of something, say an organization that you've been a part of for a long time. But it is a purpose for which you have that you want to represent if you win the title of the pageant. And I'm going to talk about how to prepare the platform statement that you're going to turn into the judges so that they can read this about you and determine whether or not your platform is strong enough to support your pageant title. One of the main reasons that you need a platform is during the course of the pageant at some point you're going to have to get, introduce yourself on stage and tell everyone what your platform is. So I'm going to demonstrate that now. Good evening. I'm Erica Saylors and my platform is prevention of elderly neglect.
