2024 Team Member Guidebook
New for this year we've developed a much simpler version of the events to use with your youth. These are not the official rules, but go 90% of the way to getting them started with a small fraction of the words. This file is a PDF that is ready for 2-sided printing, flipped on the short side. It won't work for single sided printing (pages will all be out of order). |
