Welcome to the Baltimore/DC Winter 2018 Judge Miniconference! This community event will be focused around promoting a culture of growth.

Attending
This event is capped at 40 total participants (due to the venue). As this is an area miniconference, priority is given to judges in the Baltimore and DC areas. Cover letters are not required, as we are looking for attendees who seek education and want to improve their local judge community.
Note: there are no promotional cards available for attending this event.
Schedule & Location
Seminars are scheduled to start at 12:00pm, and end at 5:00pm. Open play will begin after a dinner break.
The location is the Howard County Public Library: Savage Branch & STEM Education Center in the Albert Einstein Classroom. After seminars, we will move to the Historic Savage Mill and the Family Game Store, located down the street.

Potluck
Breaking news! We're going to hold a judge potluck at the Family Game Store following the 1/20 conference. Yes, we won't have a way to keep things hot at the library so Samma is picking up KFC. We'd love it if you can contribute a side dish or dessert.
Let us know if you plan to head home after the conference so you won't be in our head count.
