2023 Buhler Site Info:

There is a parking lot in the front for vans/cars. Buses will need to park on the North end once they have dropped off students.

Enter through the front doors and you will be in the commons/cafeteria where students will “gather.”

There will be a table set up for both registration and judges (check-in). The ballot drop-off for judges will move to in front of the library/media center after round one begins.

Some judges may choose to use online ballots, but many will not. There will be a table set up with all ballots. Students will need to pick up six for each event they are competing as there are two judges per round.

NOTE: As this is a prep tournament for state, judges will be allowed to time and use this in their decision.

WIFI: Guest WiFi. It is open, no password.

These three events are combined: IX/USX, INF 10/7, DUO/DUET—please let your judges know
