We will be adding another language, a pageant and potentially another program - what do you suggest?
We have English, Spanish and Russian - what other language? Email to Info@PortlandTeenIdol.com
We have singing, standup, will have a pageant - what other contest should we consider?
Suggestions: Song Writing, Dancing, Bands, Host & MCing, Business (like DECA) - other ideas?
