The contestant contract *should* have the correct eligibility date in it. I couldn't find an official 2014 contestant contract, but I did find the 2013 contract in several places:

Page 2, Section 2.2:
"2.2. Age. I am currently ____ years of age. I was born on _______________, 19___. I understand that, in order to be eligible to compete, I must: (1) be a high school senior before the date of my first Local competition; (2) have been at least seventeen (17) years of age at the time of my first appearance in the preliminary round of the Local or State competition that I am entering in anticipation of this year’s National Finals, and (2) be no older than twenty-four (24) years of age on December 31, 2013. A copy of my birth certificate is included with Attachment A, the Supplemental Fact Sheet. "
On the
Miss Maryland Website, they seem to use that same language and change the dates to 2014:
"Additional Information Regarding Age Eligibility:
The age eligibility requirements are based on a calendar year ending December 31st, not a pageant cycle, and remain unchanged.
Section 2 of the Contestant Contracts state:
2.2. Age. I am currently ____ years of age. I was born on _______________, 19_____. I understand that, in order to be eligible to compete, I must: (1) be a high school senior before the date of my first Local competition; (2) have been at least seventeen (17) years of age at the time of my first appearance in the preliminary round of the Local or State competition that I am entering in anticipation of this year’s National Finals, and (2) be no older than twenty-four (24) years of age on December 31, 2014. A copy of my birth certificate and a copy of my driver’s license or a government issued identification card are included with Attachment A, the Supplemental Fact Sheet. A contestant cannot be older than twenty-four (24) years of age on December 31st of the year she is chosen to represent her state in the National Finals.
