Legacy Membership – Individual $75 (USD) annually

Experience must include previous service as a Chief, Class, Head, Lead, Team, Honorary, VIP, or Special Awards Judge. NACJR honors judges who have dedicated their time and expense to travel across the country to serve as recognized concours-level judges. Experience can also include non-concours judging. Legacy Judges are the foundation of the concours, which would not have survived for decades without you. We believe you have much to share with other members. If you plan to continue judging for years to come, or if you're ready to hang up your clipboard, we think you are the key to training and mentoring an entirely new generation of great judges.
