What is DI?
Our Team
Rising Stars Team (We'll let the kids come up with a better name!)
What our kids will do:
Please have them eat in advance, but if they are hungry please send them with a snack. To cut down on cost, and stay focused on our task, we will not plan on providing snack time at the team meeting.
The Rising Star Challenge 2016
Fees & Other Requirements To Participate
This is what we are required to pay up front:
$60 - to register our team with DI
$40 - to register our team for the tournament
(Depending on the # of kids on our team this will be $15-$20.)
Other expenses you can expect:
Donate supplies or money for materials toward the project (I expect this to be a max of $40 per kiddo but will keep you all in the loop as we progress.)
Optional expenses:
Team shirts - $15 (we can decide on this later...maybe even get a sponsor!)
Volunteer requirements:
Team leader: leads the kids activity, communicates with the group and attends training (that's me!)
Co leader: Keeps the team leader sane ___TBD____
Volunteer Appraiser (Judge) for the tournament: ____TBD____
Volunteer at the tournament (4 hours): _____TBD_____
Parent Involvement Is Oh So Important!
During the weekly meetings you are welcome to stay and help or you can come back and pick them up but please try to be on time.
Also consider volunteering for the March event...you'll already be at the tournament anyways! :) Our team HAS to provide 2 judges and 4 hours of volunteering or else we have to pay up to $200! ouch!
