I'd certainly have backed the idea Kipax, the backlash would come from only a handful of people and is the same with whatever idea anybody comes up with. They are the people who just want to find fault with everything. Done right, done tastefully and done professionally there would be no cause for complaint. Approach the right sort of businesses for sponsorship and the prizes will bring the entrants. Usually they win something like a holiday, free cosmetics and spending money. So we need three or four local companies to put their hand in their pockets. Newspaper and or radio would give us the press we need very easily. Then its just choose a respectable panel of judges, decide a format (no swimwear unfortunately cos that would give cause for complaint) and away we go. The winner would have to agree to a minimum number of shoots for the club as that would be the purpose of having it. She would model the club merchandise and would be present at all Stanley related photo opportunities. She would be at the carnival float/stall and would be in the programme every week. She could have her own calender etc etc etc.

Wouldn't be that hard to put together but I dont have time for that now. Perhaps an entirely separate event (I mean fundraiser) and it would pull the crowds in to fill the bar for another evening.
