what have other teams done at the presentation/interview for the chairmans ward?

Re: looking for help on chairman award
 

MOE last year used three posters (which can be found on our website) which the three presenters used as part of their talk. They had the talk memorized but did have notes on the back of the posters as memory aids. They brought in three light weight wooden easels to set them on. Remember, the 5 minutes you are allowed in the interview room includes any set up time, so if you want to do something elaborate take that into account.

The three presenters also practiced their presentation many times, having someone time them. First in front of the Awards subteam, then in front of the whole team, than again in front of a few adults who didn't know much about the team. Each formal practice included them walking into the room and setting up the posters, just to make sure they can get it down in time allowed.

The hardest part of the presentation was keeping it within the time limit!

I am an alumni mentor on team 1592 and this year I am helping with the Chairmam's award and I was just wondering, can you only submit the chairman's info. to only one regional, or can you submit it to multiple regionals, if so, how? Thank you. :)

Re: looking for help on chairman award
 

you can only submit chairmans at one regional and remember if your team is writing a WFA both chairmans and woodie flowers are submitted to the same regional.

Okay, thank you for that clarification. I thought that you could only submit to one but I have seen some teams, on their awards, they have won two chairman's the same year at two different regionals, so I was just making sure. Thank you again. :D
