Re: Judges Packets

Just like a real-world trade show, we (as a rookie team) had the following items in our pit:
a) a tri-fold brochure on our team with a lot of the common-questions (FAQs) much of which was same as the yearbook page
b) Printed copies of our Chairman's Award essay
c) A bowl full of pins
d) we didn't have tokens or "prizes"

The biggest thing we did was to make sure that we always had two people inthe pit area, looking for the judges and then inviting them in to talk. AFTER we chatted with them, then we gave them some of our handouts.

But, don't just hand them a package of stuff WITHOUT also talking to them.
