I totally agree volunteeri.g even if its just weighing kids in or lining them up like ducks to get their podium pictures. ....or work a table you may get your kids entry fee paid as well as your admission. This year @ Liberty we even had FREE Parking!!! The swag is the best @ Brute for finalists & champions in regards to usefulness. I did like the KS STATE CHAMPIONSHIP BEANIE this year vs. a shirt for table workers!! Great idea.
