Family Profile
Parents or legal guardians must complete an application with an entry fee. The child needs to show their Navajo Tribal Enrollment Number, or if it's a newborn, the parent's number. These documents can be uploaded or scanned for verification.
Baby Contest Criteria
Each contestant must pay a $30 entry fee. We accept money orders, cashier's checks, and credit card payments (with a 4% processing fee).
Panel of Judges
Contestants will perform in front of four judges at the event. Judges will use a score sheet and rate performances on a scale from 1 to 5 based on Appearance, Theme, Public Reaction, Coordination, Vocal Skills, Independence, Introduction, Talent Mastery, Originality, and Overall Performance. Each contestant has five minutes to showcase a Traditional Skill or Talent.
Resolution of Complaints or Issues
The Navajo Nation Baby Contest winners are final. If there are any complaints, your signed form of good sportsmanship will be used as a reference.
We are not responsible for any injuries to a child during a performance or for any contributions provided.
The sponsor is only responsible for hosting the Baby Contest. It is the parents' or guardians' responsibility to organize their child’s participation in the Navajo Nation Fair Parade.
Disclaimer
The Navajo Nation, its agencies, sponsors, and coordinators are not liable for accidents, theft, injuries, or property loss.
