Destination Imagination — New York

As part of a volunteer organization, each team has a responsibility to facilitate the Regional Tournament. Each team must send a volunteer parent (in addition to the manager and the appraiser) to do one of the following jobs. If you don’t see your teams listed here, please visit the Registration table in Main Hall when you arrive at the tournament.

Volunteer Responsibilities:

Door Watcher

Make sure that no one enters or leaves during a team performance. Some door watchers may be scheduled during their team’s performance time, as they will be there anyway and have the greatest stake in preventing people from distracting their team. Just close the door when the challenge starts, come in and watch.

Prop Zone Monitor

Make sure that props are stored in a manner that will facilitate movement in and out of the room according to the performance schedule. It is also your job to make sure that all participants and parents/managers are treating the room and the materials in it respectfully. While adults are allowed to assist team members in moving props and scenery, they ARE NOT allowed to help team members in construction, repairs, costume or makeup. If you see blatant disregard for the rules, please alert the challenge master at the competition site.

Registration

Go to the registration table in Main Hall. Please give teams their registration envelopes and ask them to sign in so that we are certain that they have arrived. Please offer directions to challenge sites, or direct the team to other resources as needed.
