NADRA's 2024 National+ Deck Competition Tip
It's time to get those Deck Competition projects ready!
NADRA Members keep an eye on your inbox for an upcoming message inviting you to enter NADRA's National+ Deck Competition, where you can showcase your expertise and craftsmanship as builders of all levels and categories from across North America (and beyond) compete in NADRA's highly anticipated deck competition.
The Description is Where Entries Stand Out!
Nearly everyone has beautiful photos, and those go a long way. The judges must also know things about the deck that the photos may not tell us.
- What makes this deck truly special?
- What is unique about it vs. others?
- What challenges did you have to overcome?
- How did it meet the demands of the customer?
A strong description can go a long way!
When the Deck Competition portal opens, all NADRA Members will be the first to receive notice, stay tuned!!
