Hello!

Quick question for you experienced judges.

Willy-Pallooza will have 12 competitors.

Would the following be reasonable for volunteers in the judging area?

2 tables of 6 judges each
2 table captains
2 volunteers for recording data, numbering containers, general assistance

Total of 16 people.

Does this sound right? And is that a reasonable ratio? 1 general volunteer per 6 judges to keep things flowing?

Thanks,

Eric

Thanks Walter!

I appreciate the input.

You guys will also need judging slips and placemats. Unless someone can get their hands on real KCBS slips and placemats, we can probably design something easily. Just need to get enough printed for the competition.

Good point. I would prefer to use a facsimile, as using the KCBS materials for a non-KCBS event might tick someone off.

I'll check with Willie and see what he has to say.
