21st Annual Quizfest 2010 Info and Registration |
|||
|
Greetings! Another quiz year is already upon us and so that means you're probably already checking your calendars and marking dates for your district quizzes as well as deciding what quiz tournaments you might be a part of. As the director for Quizfest I hope that you have space in your schedules on October 16, 2009 which is when we'll be having the 21st annual Quizfest. I am particularly excited about one of the changes we are making this year and it's a big one. The past few years we have been limited in terms of space and room availability and each year there have been a few teams that have not been able to come because they missed the deadline and there was no more space to expand the tournament. This year will be the first year that Quizfest will be held just down the road at Kankakee 1st Church of the Nazarene. I am hoping this change will allow the tournament to expand, not just in terms of teams participating but also in terms of available options for the tournament structure. That being said, more possible quiz rooms means we will possibly need more officials. If you know of anyone that would like to officiate please direct them to the registration website where they can register as an official. Last year we celebrated the 20th year of Quizfest and I hope that there are another exciting 20 years ahead. I have attached all of the information that you'll need to know if you're considering being a part of this event. If you are a coach that has been here in recent years I'd love to have back again this year. If you are a coach that has never been here before come try it out! If you are a district director I'd appreciate your support of not just this tournament but the many across the country by making tournament information available to teams on your district. The attached information will also be available online at youthquiz.com and at nazquizzing.org and the online registration will be up and running within just a few days on quizfest.nazquizzing.org. This is the first year using this registration process via the nazquizzing website and I hope that you will all familiarize yourself with it as there are other tournaments that will be using the same set up. This new process will allow you to log back in at a later time and make any roster changes, correct name spelling, or make other team changes as things change closer to the tournament. Below I'll post a few reminders in regard to the registration process. If you have any questions at all please feel free to email me or call me at 815-954-4037. On a side note, we will once again be having an Old Timers Quiz on Friday night and those wishing to participate can also register online. Thanks in advance for all that you do throughout the year for the kids that you work with. I know it's been a short break since "Q" and things are already rolling as this year is starting up but this is such an important ministry for these young people and I'll be praying for all of you for the energy and the guidance you need in working with this special group of kids. Thank you for all you do!!!! God Bless, Ryan Kuehl Registration Tidbits: 1. There are 3 divisions that people can register for on the webpage: Experienced, Novice, and Old Timers. Please pay particular attention to make sure you are registering in the right division, especially if you are bringing multiple teams and you have one in each division. 2. You will be creating a login name and password for your church account. To make things easier you'll want to keep a record of your login info and possibly use it again if you are registering for other tournaments using this same format. It will also be used in later years so keep it handy. Following the tournament team and individual stats will be placed on this site for easy access. We will also be able to put updates on this page as far as pertinent information you will need to know. I will still interact regularly via email but once we get more situated with this site and see what capabilities are available things may shift more over there. 3. This is a note from Bill: You will be entering your individual member names BEFORE you enter your team names when registering. our team name can be different than your church name so when it asks for church name please enter your church name. It is not to be confused with your team name but when it asks for team name you can feel free to enter the church name again or whatever creative/absolutely random thing your kids came up with. 4. The week before the quiz I will be sending out an email reminding people to log back in and review their registered teams. PLEASE DO THIS as the purpose of this registration change is to avoid some of the last second changes that always come up. Previously you had no way of checking what you actually registered until you arrived on site but now you can double check what you registered as well as make any corrections beforehand. The less things we have to do the day of or night before the smoother the checking in process will be on site. |
