We're fortunate enough to be able to have judges come to us for our contest. We have a stage with an extension to a room next door that with our small numbers means we can keep appropriate distancing. This is one of the issues I see going to another school's facilities being a big problem this year. The ability to sit around and play with things and figuring out both safety and acoustics this year in a consistent space is a major concern.

I would avoid crunching in for a performance if you can. The distancing, at least in our situation, has an effect on who would need to quarantine if a kid comes down with COVID. The numbers are dropping... and I hope that continues, but it's not improbable that cases will rise in April again with Spring Breaks impacting things.
