Competition Workshop - June 16: Tuesday Morning
Many youth participate in competitions while at Congress. However, many simply do not know what competition
is all about. To encourage more youth to participate in competition at Congress, competitions workshops will be
offered this year during regular competition times. Delegates should rank competition areas they would like to
learn more about. Rank your workshop preference (with 1 being your top choice and 5 being your last choice).
There will be no changes upon arrival at Congress. Youth that are registering for competitions or national
congress interviews should not selection a competition workshop; youth will attend service learning during
remaining time. Youth that are registering for the shooting education competition should note that they will be
off campus all day long and will not be able to participate in the GSS workshops in the afternoon.
