Non-Competitive
Sparkles & Lace
The non-competitive division is a fun and supportive 12+ week long program for girls ages 4-13. Here the focus is working together as a group on a community service project, learning fun dance choreography, making new friends or meeting up again with old ones, working on personal growth, confidence, accountability, problem solving, etc. via public speaking, leadership, and team building.
There is no competition at all in this division, only fun! The non-competitive girls will be a special part of the opening number, along with the intermission number, during the competitive pageant and will receive a special tiara and sash and are recognized by personal introductions as they elegantly adorn the stage in their formal dresses on Coronation day. It's truly a magical experience!
Registration for the 2026-2027 Season is

Rehearsals have begun June 2026
Beyond the Sparkle:
A Path to Leadership
While Sparkles & Lace is a non-competitive division, we are proud to offer a Progressive Leadership Component for girls who want to grow with us year after year. This unique path allows our "Sparkles" to build deep roots in community service and leadership.
Level Up Your Journey: As participants progress through the program, they advance through our designated Team Levels, earning recognition for their continued dedication and growth:
-
Sapphire– Beginning the Journey
-
Emerald – Building Confidence
-
Ruby – Strengthening Service
-
Silver– Developing Leadership
-
Gold – Strengthening Leadership
-
Platinum – Leadership through Royal Titles (Competitive Titleholders)
-
Diamond – Mastering Mentorship (Royal Ambassadors)
New members begin as Sapphires, and with each year of service and hours of participation, they advance to the next level—unlocking new leadership opportunities along the way!"
It’s more than just a stage—it’s a multi-year experience where your daughter can evolve from a learner into a leader.

(costs included in reg fee)
Dance Routine
Our choreographer will work with the girls beginning on Day 1 with choreography for the dance number they will perform at the end of the program. No prior dance skills are needed--just a willingness to learn and have fun!
Community Service Project
Our director chooses a THEME each year that is important to the program. She then picks the dance music and the community service project to fit and match with that theme.
Headshots
Headshots are taken of the girls by our program photographer, and then added to the Program Book and also used for Social Media purposes. If you wish your child to be excluded, be sure to let the Director know this ahead of time!
Awards Banquet
A little extra fun to help make the girls feel special is the Awards Banquet we hold right before Coronation Day After 12 weeks of hard work, the girls deserve lots of praise and recognition and we love to give it out!
T-shirts
All Sparkles and Lace participants will receive a T-shirt they will wear in the Yakima Sunfair Parade and for rehearsals, Awards Banquet and any other promotional events.
Parades
The Sparkle and Lace program runs June-September so there is the opportunity to participate in the Yakima Sunfair Parade. In addition, the TEAMS program runs year long so there are many other opportunities to participate as well, including the Christmas parades.
Tiara and Sash
