Please check all dates carefully. All events and competitions are mandatory. We will only consider excusing an absence for a major event if we are notified PRIOR to placement on a team. In August, we will choose approximately six competitions from the list
below. It is likely that we will attend one or two out of town competitions. Worlds
teams may travel more frequently. All teams who earn a Summit Bid will attend the
event. A new fundraising committee will raise funds for Summit and Worlds all season.
