• All applicants will be required to complete tax information.
• Applications will be processed on a rolling basis. Applicants will be processed in 2 or 3 waves with the final wave processed after the application deadline closes on September 5th.

Expectations



Please be reminded that judging a GP is a lot of fun, but it's also a lot of work. You get to see a bunch of old friends and you'll hopefully make a few new ones - but you'll also take judge calls, give rulings, take registration, pick up trash, count lists, push in chairs, prepare product, pick up trash, move tables, push in chairs, deploy tablecloths, pick up trash, fold tablecloths, push in chairs, stay up late, pick up trash, help the artists, push in chairs, help with breakdown, and pick up trash!

Please indicate in your application if you are available to work Friday. There will be multiple shifts, so indicate your hours of availability. 

All judges staffed for Sunday are expected to be available to work until 8pm. If you must leave early, your compensation may be reduced. Please contact the Staff Manager as soon as you know about a possible conflict.

The application window will close on Friday, September 5th.
