We will begin onsite registration at 4 and start the contest at 4:30. Please make sure and register your students, any students not registered will require a documented membership number. The following Schools have registered for the CDE: *Area 1* Bowdon Cambridge Central of Carroll Chattooga County Creekside Dawson County Etowah Gilmer County Mt. Zion Paulding County Pickens County High Ridgeland Rockmart Southeast Whitfield Woodland (Bartow County) *Area 2* Lincolnton Morgan County High Newton County North Oconee Oconee County High Rabun County Stephens County High The Ag Sales CDE is a 4 person event open to students grade 9-12 in which each individual will choose 1 of the 4 sales scenarios listed in the 2018-2019 Ag Sales product information over Godfrey's Feed listed under the Agriculture Sales CDE tab at gaaged.org. Each participant is responsible for presenting one of the scenarios. Team members may not present the same scenario. Students are not allowed to bring anything into the sales room with them except what can fit in a 1 inch 3 ring binder and a calculator (no props, electronic devices, poster board, or equipment). Students will have 10 minutes to complete their individual sales pitch. Each team member will also take a multiple choice test at the Area level. All 4 scores count and I would advise each chapter training a team to review the judges rubric in the CDE guides that will be used to score each student. Please let me know if you have any other questions and good luck! -- Brandon Ray North Region Forestry Teacher Agricultural Education 204 Four Towers The University of Georgia Athens, Ga 30602 Office: 706-552-4465 Cell: 706-506-8110
