Seeking NAN 2013 Judges

NAN 2013 needs judges! NAMHSA is looking for judging nominations for the 2013 NAN.

If you know judges who are knowledgeable and professional, consider nominating them for the division or classes they excel at. A quality NAN depends on quality judging.

Please, no self-nominations. If you wish to judge, please contact an individual member or member show holder who is familiar with you as a judge and request that he or she submit your name for consideration. Selected candidates will be asked to provide additional information such as availability, classes they cannot judge (due to the risk of encountering their own work), strengths/weaknesses and judging preferences. If you submit a nomination please make certain your nominee is aware of your submission and is prepared with this information if contacted. 

The Judge's Package for 2013 includes:
-$100 stipend for each day judged (increased as of 2012)
-FREE T-shirt with opportunity to purchase additional t-shirt
-NAN thank you plaque (if desired)
