• Red Carpet Entrance
• Awards Ceremony
• Q&A

You will each have a very specific role that you need to be aware of.  This would also be the time you will get to meet your circle of Awardees and know who walks before you and after you.   We are going to ask you to ‘buddy up’ and look out for each other. A detailed handout to be provided at the Rehearsal.
