Chicago Rose of Tralee
We are looking for young ladies, age 5-12, of Irish heritage that would like to represent the Chicago Rose of Tralee as a Chicago Rosebud.  Rosebuds serve as an Honor Guard of sorts for the Rose Candidates. They lead the candidates onto stage for their on-stage interviews and make a presentation to the candidates. They also serve a vital role by enabling the judges to observe how well each candidate relates to young children, as the biggest Rose of Tralee fans in Ireland are the young children.

Please fill out the application completely and mail to the address listed.  Please hurry, as there are only 40 spots available. 

The Chicago Rose of Tralee selection night will be held on Saturday,  March 31, 2012 at the Abbey, Chicago.

The Rosebuds are asked to wear a pastel party dress.

Please send in quickly as we see these spots filling quickly!
