Community Judges
Community Judges are a crucial and integral part of our tournament. They bring unique perspective while sharing valuable information with our students. This is an important connection that builds relationships beyond the competition, blessing everyone involved. When people come and serve as a Community Judge, they are always so blessed by what they have see and been a part of. In fact, the quote heard most by Community Judges is "That was wonderful. My hope for the future of our country is greatly increased." This might sound like hyperbole, but it is the honest truth.
If you are a Community Judge reading this page, THANK YOU!!! We are so thankful and could not hold this tournament without you.
What can a Community Judge expect?
- Our tournament runs for 3 days (Thur, Fri, Sat) from 7:30 AM to 9 PM. This gives everyone the chance to judge by providing such a broad range of times each day.
- When arriving at West County Assembly of God (WCAG) come in the main doors under the covered drive.
- Once you enter, you will be greeted at the entrance warmly by one of our tournament greeters where they will receive a name badge.
- Then they will be directed to the Judge Hospitality Room where they are free to get something to eat or drink.
- Then they go to what we call "Ballot Push" to determine what event they judge that day and at that time, and will likely receive the corresponding BALLOT for that event.
- Then we will direct them to THE JUDGE'S TRAINING we provide in our Judge Orientation room.
- Once the training is done, they walk to the competition room, or wait in the Judges Hospitality room for the time the event they are judging begins.
- We hope they are encouraged and impressed by the students they observe and judge.
- And when the event is over, they grab their stuff and walk back to the Judges Hospitality room to finish filling out their ballot.
- Here they grab some more food and/or a beverage, sit down at one of our tables, while they fill out the rest of their ballot.
- When the ballot is complete, they walk over to the "Ballot Collect" table, have their judging decision verified for accuracy, and then turn in their ballot.
- At this point Community Judges can "hang out", get some more refreshments, depart the tournament OR...GRAB ANOTHER BALLOT and spend a little more time with us. ;-)
*We really are SO GRATEFUL for their/your service to us as a Community Judge.
