My team has spontaneous and then 1 hr and 20 minutes later long term…so just a little worried about timing of getting long term set up 00:58:02 Randy Burton: Spontaneous takes 20 minutes so 1:20 should be plenty of time 00:58:20 Lauren Huff: Reacted to "Spontaneous takes 20..." with 👍 01:01:18 Betina Blokager Kjeldsen: How about the clothes and shoes they have underneath the costumes? 01:01:21 meisinger: Primary coach here. We are in the dance room, but maybe for the good of a group—will kids have carry props up the stairs, how large is the stage (is there a stage in every room?), can we direct them where to stand for visibility? 01:01:25 Betina Blokager Kjeldsen: And shoes? 01:02:22 Betina Blokager Kjeldsen: And clothes 🙂 01:02:26 Natalie: Save your copies in case you move forward to States and worlds so you don't have to rewrite them! 01:02:37 meisinger: Reacted to "Save your copies in ..." with ❤️ 01:02:51 Lauren Huff: We’re also struggling with garage sale cost? 01:03:03 Lauren Huff: how do you come up with those? 01:03:57 Lexie: Replying to "How long does sponta..." We promise we look very carefully at how much time there is between LT and Spont 🙂 01:05:09 Lauren Huff: Exempt from cost items…we list on the form and say $0…or we just don’t list them 01:06:45 Bhinesh Patel: Just to clarify, we can help the team carry everything to the staging area? 01:07:12 Randy Burton: Yes you can help cary everything to the staging area 01:07:56 Randy Burton: You do not need to include $0 cost items listed in the Program Guide on your cost form 01:08:05 Abhishek: Can coaches and parents help the kids to to take off the stuff from the staging area once the slit is done? 01:09:32 Randy Burton: I’ll answer that in just a second 01:09:42 Lauren Huff: Reacted to "We promise we look v..." with ❤️ 01:10:56 krw55: Just to clarify on the cost form, is it correct that items like cardboard boxes and other items pulled out of the recycling bin have zero cost? Also, do these items get included on the cost form with a zero value listed? 01:14:18 krw55: If the team already included the team number on the sign that they already made, is that ok? 01:14:28 meisinger: How far in advance of time should we be there? 01:14:52 meisinger: Do parents come with us to areas for spont and problem area? 01:15:45 Lauren Huff: last long term is like 2ish and award ceremony is around 4…what do teams usually do between? 01:16:37 Lauren Huff: And can we leave to go eat lunch as a team? Or do I understand correctly that we should stay on site (at least the coach) to get the scores? 01:16:47 meisinger: Reacted to "last long term is li..." with ❤️ 01:17:06 Lauren Huff: (Just thinking through day of timing and how to plan whole day with kids and parents) 01:17:16 Bhinesh Patel: On the schedule what is the 'Number' column for? 01:19:35 Lexie: You can ignore the number column. That was where the membership number went and the system requires something to be int ehre 01:20:09 Amy Wilkinson: Thank you for that! 🙂 01:20:33 Lexie: Reacted to "Thank you for that! ..." with 😊 01:24:24 Randy Burton: Replying to "(Just thinking throu..." We will take about getting scores in a minutes, but you can leave the site and go get food and come back. 01:34:39 Bhinesh Patel: We drop the props and the kids off at the designated point but the parents/coaches go park the car and meet them at the staging? 01:37:04 Kara Baynes: Do we have a separate check in when we first arrive, or is the sign in at our staging area the only check in? 01:40:16 meisinger: So cool! 01:43:07 Kara Baynes: Thank you! 01:43:47 Erin Regan: If your first event is on the later side, how far ahead should the team arrive? 01:45:12 Bhinesh Patel: How do we contact the PCs on the day? 01:46:17 Randy Burton: The PCs will be at their venue for the day, but you can also ask any of the HAM radio volunteers and they can locate us for you. 01:46:44 Kara Baynes: How do we find out who our problem captain is? 01:46:49 Natalie: What's that facebook group for pins? Is it this one I just found called Odyssey of the Mind Pin Trading or is there another? 01:47:52 Randy Burton: Natalie I’m honestly not sure, but I’ll ask our pin coordinator (Marc Blake) if he knows and get that to you and the other coaches 01:48:02 Natalie: Thanks! 01:48:33 krw55: Are there any specific questions that the team should be prepared to answer at the end of the long-term problem. 01:52:27 Lexie: Odyssey of the Mind® Pin Trading 01:52:40 Natalie: Thank you! 01:54:27 meisinger: Just to clarify timing: don’t come more than 45min advance of your first problem time. Bring your props to drop off at that time (45 min in advance). Go to check-in after or send someone check-in first(?). if downtime or up until awards, you can watch other teams. 01:56:05 Randy Burton: Claire, exactly right! 01:56:17 meisinger: And…Bring kids to check-in because it sounds like a cool place. 🙂 01:56:38 Randy Burton: Yes it iis! 01:57:24 Lexie: Replying to "Just to clarify timi..." Yup! 01:58:32 Amy Wilkinson: Thank you so much for the information! See you all in three weeks! Have to run. 01:58:49 krw55: Apologies for inquiring again about this. Are there any specific questions that the team should be prepared to answer at the end of the long-term problem. 01:58:56 meisinger: Replying to "Just to clarify timi..." Is it better to check-in before or after prop drop off? or send team there with 1 coach and have 1 coach do drop off with some parents? 01:59:17 Natalie: Thank you all so much! Looking forward to March 1st!! 02:02:25 Laurie Desch: There’s also a large cafeteria in the middle of everything where teams set up and hang out 02:02:33 meisinger: Reacted to "There’s also a large..." with ❤️ 02:03:41 Lily Adams: Can parents help with the group for kid wrangling, or do they HAVE to go sit elsewhere? 02:05:56 Laurie Desch: Replying to "There’s also a large..." We used the cafeteria as a home base. When not competing, parents and family members all sat at a table and we had snacks there for the team, team members did costume prep. We used extra time to watch other performances. 02:08:19 Raki Prasad: Problem 5 - Would also like to know about lighting as well. 02:08:37 Erin Regan: Thanks so much for everything you do! 02:10:31 Kara Baynes: Thank you so much for all this! This was really helpful! 02:11:16 Lauren Huff: We’re in the aux gym…so I’m assuming we have the whole gym to perform in? 02:11:17 Betina Blokager Kjeldsen: Thank you for all the time you put into this great event 🙂 02:11:24 meisinger: Thank you!! 02:11:28 Laurie Desch: Thank you ! 02:11:29 Lauren Huff: so like much bigger than 10x10 🙂
