Re: Yearbook Page

The yearbook page is different than the program book. There will be one master program book with ALL the teams listed and listing judges and teams, available at regionals.

I would recommend that you fill out the yearbook page for a number of reasons. It will help the judges. You never know what awards you might be considered for. This is probably the only way that FIRST can gather much of the demographic information and it will help them. Also it forces a team to write a concise blurb about the team, gather statistics and answer some tough questions like what are your goals and strengths? Once written,the information can be used many times. For example, team history can be used on the website, for press releases, for grant proposals. It's like a lot of things on the "business" side of FIRST; do it once the right way and then that stuff can be modified and used again and again, thereby saving time in the future. Hope this helps.

The above was written 2/04. Lots of threads about yearbook page. Yearbook page is listed under "judges info" on the TIMS. Can be filled out over time and by anyone who has access to the TIMS, adults or students, if that is ok with the main team contact.
