2015: Attend the 2015 ABM to See Who Wins
The AAFS 2015 Academy Cup will take place on Wednesday, February 18, before the Plenary Session. The game will start at 8:15 a.m. and will consist of multiple-choice and true or false questions projected onto a screen to test each section’s knowledge.
Each section’s team is comprised of up to 11 members, including Past President, Past Vice President, Board Member, and/or Officer, Chair, Secretary, YFSF volunteers, and the section leader’s other strategic choices. Teams will have fifteen minutes to answer questions. Once all sections have their answers turned in, the answers to the questions will be presented.
The winning team will be announced and trophy presented at the AAFS Annual Business Meeting at 4:15 p.m. Teams should be present at the Annual Business Meeting to find out who won and be available at the conclusion to have a group photo taken.
If you just want to test your knowledge, the session is open to all registered attendees. Feel free to join your section behind your flag to cheer them on!
