Additional Guidance
Use an online event program; Create a QR code for it, and show it on the opening slide of the presentation so the audience can access it as they’re getting settled. Allows for last minute changes and saves paper and the logistics of handing out a physical program.
Create an online voting form for the People’s Choice award; put the link to it in the online program
Create an online voting form for the judges; text them the link before the event during a huddle where you review their role and process
Create bumper slides for the master deck
Opening slide with QR code for program
Thank yous to sponsors and grant organizations, faculty advisors

Prepare other presentation logistics;
· Use a bell to let teams know when time is up
· Create a paper sign for “1 Minute Left” to show teams as they’re nearing the end of their allotted time
· Get dry erase markers for the oversized checks
