If you'll be receiving an apron or hat and haven’t notified me or posted it on the website when you signed up, please let me know so I can be prepared to present it to you.
If any of you have a family member that is cooking with a team, I need to remind you that you will not be able to judge in this event, but we can assign you to other duties to assist.
Also, please remember not to fraternize with the cook teams or enter their cooking area on Saturday afternoon, until all judging is officially over. After all judging has been completed, I encourage you to go out and talk and thank the cook teams.
The awards ceremony will be held at 7:00 PM, on the Main Stage. The stage is adjacent to where we will be judging. Please make plans to stay if you can.
Lastly, if you are signed up for this event and are unable to attend, for any reason, I ask that you please let me know ASAP because we are counting on your attendance.
