Thank you for your interest in judging our contest.  By completing this form, please understand that you will be placed on the judging desired list, and will be notified ONLY if (and when) needed, which could be just days (or even hours) before the event. Completing this form does NOT guarantee you will be accepted. Accepted judges will be notified as soon as it is determined that they are needed, the hope it to let you know as soon as we are able to. In past years, we have made use of every single judge on the list, every year can be different. 

Your chances of being selected increase if you select “Table Captain” or “anything in the tent”.
