@CourtneyThurston - Hoping you are still active on this site and can answer some questions.
-
Do you know anything about the points scoring system used?

Do you know how many state finalists there are from each state in comparison to national semifinalists? I looked at lists of past winners and see that there are consistently 9 national semifinalists. Our state has 8 Elks regions, one being metro, so maybe 2 advance from there. D was notified today of advancing as a state finalist. Trying to determine her chances for the $4000 award. Doubt she would advance beyond that based on our income.
Thx for any insights!
