We have opportunities for judging documentaries, exhibits, and performances on the day of the contest, which will be on March 21, 2012 at the Shoreline Center in Shoreline. Papers and websites can be judged "in the privacy of your own home," as they say, before the contest date. You need not be present on the contest date to judge papers and websites!
