We are starting to work on our tournament for this spring. Our 5th year celebration of Florida creativity will happen on Saturday, March 30 at Park Maitland School. Registration for our tournament is open for both teams as well as volunteers. We are looking for energetic people who are dedicated to helping our young people learn the creative process from imagination to innovation. Your participation enables us to give students their best possible experience. Teams must register for our tournament even though you have entered data into the DII website. The sooner you register at http://www.floridadi.org/TeamRegistration.html the sooner we can put Challenge Masters in place and start to train our appraisers in your particular challenge. It also helps us with purchasing medals and other supplies for the tournament. Please try to register your challenge at least on the DII website by January 31. The deadline for registration for our tournament is February 28. Volunteers are encouraged to register early, even if you are not sure about attending. Please go to http://www.floridadi.org/VolunteerRegistration.html to register. We use the registration list to contact you with training and information. If you are interested in Florida Destination Imagination, and would like to know more about us, becoming an appraiser is a great way to get to know us. We have many different tasks that need to be filled, so we should be able to find a job that suits your interests and abilities. You will receive training in our philosophy and this year's challenges. Most of the training is done online, at your convenience, with a final training done the morning of the tournament. Our teams will present in the afternoon of the 30th. Instant Challenge Master needed for our tournament. If you have appraised Instant Challenge previously, we invite you to take on this role. You would be our resident "expert" in the challenge, which you can help to select and you would set up the flow of teams through your area. Training is provided, and we will work with you to ensure that your day runs smoothly.
