Nationals will be held this summer, with work to be done leading up to the event, especially since it will be held virtually. Normally, the objective testing would be done on site. They've done a great job, even with the unusual year+ we've had. Last year's State conference was cancelled, but they did recognize those that had submitted pre-judged projects prior to shut downs. We were glad to at least have virtual conferences this year so that we could participate.
