** WATCH Weekly Report 08-07-24 ** ------------------------------------------------------------ To the WATCH Board, Judges, and Alternates: TIP OF THE WEEK: Submitting your ballot shortly after seeing a show benefits you as well as the production – it makes it much easier for you to remember what you saw to give the most accurate scores and should also make it faster for you to fill out the ballot. Although we give 30 days from show closing to submit, we highly recommend you fill it out within 10 days of seeing the show (and obviously the earlier in that time frame, the better). ****************************************** NOTE: Balloting for a show closes 30 days after the show closes. If you owe us a ballot, please get it in as soon as possible. Friendly Reminders:
