Judging
Individual awards are judged by a panel of current chapter members. This year, the Central PA chapter will judge our programs and tactics entries.
Entries that earn a score of 60 will receive the Pinnacles Merit Award, and entries that earn a score of 85 or higher will receive the Pinnacles Excellence Award. We will also have a Best in Show Award for the submission that receives the highest score for the student category and for all the other entries.
