We have three announcements for this update.

First, Wave 3 Recognitions have been published. If you received a recognition, it will be visible here<\/a>. You can use the\u00a0search tool<\/a>\u00a0to see all the awesome things your fellow judges are doing: at home, at events, online, or in their community. The search tool will also allow you to read recognitions from the previous waves under the legacy program. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Next is a reminder that with this Wave we will be printing and mailing tokens. We will be going back and also printing tokens for recognitions in Waves 1 and 2 as well. Please be on the look out for an email within the next week with a link to a google form where you will be able to provide your address. This will be the address we use, so pick one that is going to be stable for a while. We know how nomadic judges can be.

Finally, Wave 4 of the Judge Foundry Exemplar Program has arrived. It will open TODAY<\/strong>\u00a0and will close\u00a0Wednesday September 30th at midnight PST<\/strong>. East Coast folks have a little bit of spill over into the next day, but if you are done by midnight on the 30th you are fine. Judges will have the same number and types of slots as they did for the previous waves:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Level Based Slots<\/strong>:
L1s \u2013 1 \u201cany\u201d slot per wave
L2s \u2013 1 L1 slot per wave, 1 \u201cany slot\u201d per wave
L3s \u2013 1 L1 slot per wave, 1 L2 slot per wave, 1 \u201cAny\u201d slot per wave.
L4s \u2013 1 L1 slot per wave, 1 L2 slot per wave, 2 \u201cAny\u201d slot per wave.
L5s \u2013 1 L1 slot per wave, 1 L2 slot per wave, 3 \u201cAny\u201d slot per wave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Role Based Slots:<\/strong>
Regional Advocates \u2013 3 Additional \u201cAny\u201d Slots
Area Communicators \u2013 1 Additional \u201cAny\u201d Slot
Core Judge Foundry Project leads will receive additional \u201cAny\u201d slots tied to the size\/scope of the respective project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stay tuned for our next article where we highlight a few nominations we particularly liked from this last Wave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Until next time, stay awesome!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
