Hail Carolinas Judges!  Welcome to the Carolinas Level Up! Conference!

This conference aims to educate and develop judges to level up their local events, their judging skills, and themselves!  By bringing everyone together, we can better share our experiences and expertise with one another to find the best tools and methodologies to craft superior play experiences for local gaming communities.

The Basics:
This conference IS foil supported; full attendance of 4 presentations will be required to receive promos at the end of the event.

While feedback is not required, it is strongly encouraged.  Feedback forms for each individual presenter will be provided.

Attendance is capped at 40 attendees.  Applications are due 6/10/23.
