prelim tickets only. If we are lucky enough to win and stay for finals parents
can decide at that point whether to buy & stay or not.

They will stay with the Guard group the entire day. They will be given cell phone breaks to check in with parents, but otherwise the cells will remain OFF and in mesh bag!!
