FBLA-PBL Contest in Need of Judges

June 13, 2007

I was made aware of a day of competitions that the FBLA-PBL (Future Business Leaders of America - Phi Beta Lambda) is putting on via a friend of mine. Turns out they are in need of some tech related judges for some of the competitions. I have a soft spot for the FBLA as I founded the chapter at my high school (Shepherd Hill Regional - Go Rams!) so I have agreed to sit in as a judge on either the E-Business or Web Site Development competitions (still waiting to hear which one works for my schedule). Here are the details and the slots they need to fill:

Slots:

Digital Video Production (8:00 - 3:00 presentation) - 6 judges needed

E-Businesses (12:30 - 6:00 presentation) - 2 judges needed

Multimedia (8:00 - 3:00 presentation) - 6 judges needed

Web Site Development (8:00 - 1:30 presentation) - 1 judge needed (that’ll probably be me though)

Event Details:

Location: Hyatt Regency on 151 E. Wacker.

Date: Friday, June 29th

Perks: Judges get a parking voucher, breakfast (if you have any early panel) and lunch.

This is a great chance to give back to the next generation of business leaders and entrepreneurs so I hope some of you out there will do this with me. If you’re interested in being a judge please shoot me a note (eric [at] techcocktail.com) and I’ll get you the judge form (takes 30 seconds to fill out) and the contact info of the person you should e-mail it to. End of PSA…
