Signup Info:
At this time, we are planning on 3 judging tables based on updated team count. We are looking for the following:
• 18 Judges. Judges will be selected with preference for PNWBA current paid members certified as PNWBA BBQ Judges. Should there still be openings, PNWBA CBJ's with lapsed membership will be used, then KCBS certified BBQ judges will be used.
• 3 Table Captains. Preference will be to PNWBA current paid members certified as Table Captains.
• 3-5 Volunteers, i.e. Food Runners, Meat Wranglers, and general helpers.
Due to the fluid nature of this event, signing up does not guarantee a judging spot. Please be willing to volunteer as needed. Should there be a reduction in judges needed, an email will be sent to see if you would wish to volunteer.
The head judges will make the final assessment of volunteers and choose the seated judges. Tables will also be adjusted at the event to try and even out the judge levels and experience.
Waitlist:
Please sign up for the waitlist if initial spots are full. We may have an influx in teams requiring more seated judges and table captains. We had to use several folks from the waitlist for our last event. Preference is always given to PNWBA members with current paid membership.

Covid-19 guidelines may change prior to the event. For safety, the following requirements must be followed:
Masks – Masks should be worn when in the judging area, when not actively judging.
