SkillsUSA Texas District 9To: SkillsUSA Texas District 9 Advisors From: Mike Hedger, District Director Date: October 27, 2014 Subject: CONTEST INFORMATIONAdvisors you are responsible for reading and understanding the information in this packet. There are some changes to the information from last year so please read all of the info. I will try to have the new things highlighted but please read everything. The District 9 Skills and Leadership Contest will be held on February 6-7, 2015. The opening ceremonies will be held at 9:00am at San Jacinto College Central 8060 Spencer Hwy Pasadena, TX 77505.

There is a link on the registration once you have logged in for you to click and go to your district web page for more information. Passwords have all been defaulted to success. You must add yourselves as an attendee this year. Keep in mind that you can go in and modify your entries as often as you want as long as you DO NOT Finalize. Once you hit the submit button you will not be able to get back to it. So you can enter your students early so all the information is there for me. Make adjustments as needed and then hit the submit button a day or two before it is due. Officer candidate’s guide lines will be posted on the Texas Skills USA web page. It outlines candidate qualifications and other details so that they will know what is expected of them.Advisor Check List for District Contest 1.
