The collection pertains to Michelle McCausland’s (Michael Shreves’s) participation in Missouri and St. Louis pageants that were preliminaries for the Miss Gay America pageant and a program for a celebration of life held in August 2022. Pageant-related items include certificates from the Miss Gay Missouri 2012 pageant and a judges workbook from the Miss Gay St. Louis America pageant held at Hamburger Mary’s (3037 Olive St.) on February 17, 2013. There is a large date gap from 2014 to 2021. The collection is arranged chronologically. There are two certificates earned by McCausland in the Miss Gay Missouri America pageant held on April 28, 2012: Group Two Talent Winner and Group Two Solo Talent Winner. The Miss Gay St. Louis America judges workbook is housed in four folders. The page order from the workbook binder has been maintained with loose pages placed in the final folder. The four St. Louis contestants were Kitty Litter, Musica Malone, ButterScotch, and Diva Coppafeel.
