Event Information

Channel Fireball is graciously allowing the judge program to take over the game center from 4pm until 10pm.

In that time we will have as many seminars we can schedule. (full schedule /w presenters will be posted as soon as we can)

You will need to register to attend this event.

There is limited space to the venue at about 150 people. 

The organizers are requiring that applicants submit a cover letter to this conference consistent with what would be expected by a PTO or for a high level event. This was also the case for the San Diego conference, where a number of applications were rejected for failure to follow this instruction, so please put in some effort when writing the cover letter for your application.

Things like "I like judges.", "I like learning.", or "Conferences are fun." are not acceptable cover letters.

Testing is available for both L1 and L2 at this event. 

Please send relevant information to either Travis Lauro or Nick Rutkowski to coordinate the exam.
