Count medals and ribbons left over from previous year
Order new medals and ribbons based on estimated entries. If this can be done after the official schedule is created, a more accurate estimate is possible. Check with awards vendor for how long it takes to make medals
Attach ribbons to medals if necessary
If possible, secure PA system, karaoke system, or amp and microphone
Set up awards stand (who has this?) Mimzi Staten has a large blue backdrop
Coordinate with competition chair to create an awards schedule
Distribute awards on day of event (should have assistant to announce or give medals)
