The Little Sister's program was started as a good will gesture between girls in the community and the visiting contestants. The Big and Little Sisters are introduced at Contestant Orientation and often correspond several times between then and pageant week. During the pageant, they rehearse together and have some time for recreation and building friendships. These friendships often last for many years and create a lasting bond between the big sister and little sister.
