The King and Queen of the Norse is a tradition Northglenn High School throws on every year. It is a competition similar to a beauty pageant; picture an American Idol themed competition with a twist!
The contestants undergo rounds of answering questions/interviews and present their talent to Northglenn High School. At the end, due to crowd votes, there will be one king and one queen. The king and Queen of the Norse will receive $250 for the club/organization/team of their choice and a $100 gift card of their own to Wal-Mart! 1st runner-ups receive $50 for the club/organization/team of their choice and $50 Wal-Mart gift card. 2nd runner-ups will receive $25 for the club/organization/team of their choice and $20 gift card to Wal-Mart.
It’s a good cause that benefits you and the school. It’s a fun event that gets the school involved, every year we discover students’ new talents and you get to know them on a better level.
Senior Taylor Marvin, 2011 King of the Norse, said that his experience was very fun. He got to meet some great friends and see a lot of unexpected talent.
Marvin said, “I loved seeing all the talented people in the school and how much support everyone had!”
When asked what he had gained from the experience, he replied with “It helped me work on my interview and performance skills.”
Words of advice from Taylor Marvin: “Make sure your talent is rehearsed perfectly and be ready for anything in the interview portion!”
But do not be intimidated, from Lady Gaga on the flute to comedic routines, students show off what they got. Don’t be embarrassed to burp your ABC’s or sing on stage, King and Queen of the Norse is a tradition that brings us together.
So sign up, or invite your friends and family to an eventful night! The 2012 King and Queen of the Norse Competition will be held Wednesday, February 1st, 6:00 pm, in the auditorium. Ticket prices for the event are $3, children under 10 are free and staff and family members are also free.
