Note for Spectators:
Every day is a great day at the NRC, but if you are not able to attend them all, we recommend Friday between 9 am and 2 pm. Friday morning is when the most events are judged, so there's plenty to see.
If Saturday is the only day you can attend, make sure you arrive around 9 am. Our finals go really fast, and we are all wrapped up by noon to be ready for our awards ceremony.
