2009 Chesapeake "Team Showcase"
Each year the planning committee receives requests from the teams for space to put up a booth or table, to demonstrate a product, to make a presentation on center stage, to show a video, to conduct a charity drive or to give-away cool stuff. We are impressed by the creativity and initiative shown by the teams. However, with 60+ teams at Chesapeake, we have a shortage of space, and need to establish policies that are fair and consistent for all the teams.
Last year we held a successful Team Showcase, and we are pleased to announce the 2009 Chesapeake Team Showcase. The first 20 teams who register will be assigned a one-hour time slot on Thursday March 19, between 9-7 pm, starting on the hour. The team will be allowed a standard 2' by 6' table at a site TBD (in the pits). Two teams at two tables will be featured in the Showcase at the same time.
Teams will be responsible for staffing this table during their assigned hour. They may display a banner on the front of the table (need to bring own tape, etc.) They may give-away items fitting the guidelines listed here under Chesapeake Regional-Site Information:
