About
From the Producers: As a Bootblack-focused event for Bootblacks, Bootblack Round-Up increases Bootblacks' visibility in the community, provides a gathering place for Bootblacks to exchange ideas, learn, and build camaraderie, and supports the broader community through our fundraising efforts and support of each other.
This weekend conference includes Bootblack opportunities, classes, parties, games, socials, pool parties, a Keynote Dinner, and more.
Opportunities
Title Contest(s)
The Shine-Off is a quick, simple test of skill. Contestants are matched with a Single Corcoran-style Boot and given 15 minutes to do their best shine. There will be three Judges. Sign-up will be held at Registration and Events on Friday night.
This is not a feeder contest.
You don't have to be a titleholder to compete.
The Shine-Off is open to all experience levels, from brand new to "I've been doing this longer than you've been alive."
Age/sex/orientation/creed/etc. doesn't matter as we are all family.
Judging Criteria
The contestants are judged on the quality of their shine, saturation of color, and more!
