Judiging and Running
Before the competition, you will receive a card/nametag with personalized information detailing your assigned groups for competing, and possibly judging, running, or even scrambling.
It is essential that we have enough volunteers to run the competition on schedule. We are all volunteers here, and it is not acceptable to not show up to perform running or judging assignments. Be aware that you may be disqualified from one or more events if you are found to be doing this. No assignments are given for second and final rounds, so it is important to volunteer when you can!
Helping out is easy, and we are happy to teach anyone, even parents or other guests. It is a great way to get involved and pass the time, and it helps us out a lot!
Guest Policies
There is also no guest limit for competition, however be mindful of other people and exercise caution when bringing more than the usual amount of guests.
This section will be updated if things change about either of the two sections.
