General Guidelines

Parents and community members can support our team and our league by being a judge at our competitions. Judges should be one year removed from high school, have an open mind and a willingness to give of their time for the team. Contact our Committee Chair if you are interested.

League Events and Invitationals

Our team participates in both league events and invitationals. 
​League events usually only last one day, and competitions are usually within a few hours driving distance. Invitationals are optional events that are usually outside our league, and therefore require more travel and overnight accommodations.
​Our Calendar is updated regularly with event locations, dates, and times.
​If you are a parent or are interested in judging, please sign up at our Shutterfly page, or simply come and observe a competition to learn how you can support your student and stay connected. Contact the school office for up to date info.
