Please
The sponsors and judges of the welding contest are integral to the successful running of the contest.  They donate their time and donate great prizes to the contest. In return, the companies would like photographs with the competitors and their prizes. 

It is the policy of SkillsUSA that anyone on stage during closing ceremony be in official dress. When competitors are not in official dress, they are not on stage to take pictures.  It is the discretion of SkillsUSA, company sponsors, and the technical committee to distribute the first through third prizes. So please be advised that if a competitor is not on stage, they will still receive their place for the contest, but they may not receive the prize.

Welders will need to place a butter pass in the SMAW weld this year.  The fit-up for the pipe is not the best.  Please view pictures and come prepared.
