I looked through the manuals for the awards, but couldn’t seem to find a definitive answer for this question. When we create the business plan for the Entrepreneurship Award, does that need to be submitted electronically on FEB 17? Or do we just print it out and hand it over to passing judges who request it? We’ve never submitted for this award before, but are hoping to do so this season.
“Assuming” this is the same as 2010, you do not submit it. You have copies available in your pit and talk through it and explain it to judges who are interested.
It is a good idea to have extra copies so they can take on with them when they leave your pit.
I haven’t made it the whole way through this year’s manual, but for the past two years, there is no advanced submittal. The judges will come by at your regional event and collect the one page business plan summary from you. (At least at the regionals we’ve gone to, they have taken them early on Friday morning) Then they will come back and interview team members and you can show them your other supporting information if you want to.
