The National Geographic GeoBee is an annual competition for students in grades 4-8 designed to inspire and reward students' curiosity about the world. The GeoBee includes three levels of competition: school, state, and national. Schools across the United States conduct a GeoBee and name a school champion. The school champion takes a proctored online qualifying test and the top-100-ranked students in each state qualify to represent their school at the state GeoBee competition. Fifty-four state and territory champions then compete in the national championship.

The Washington State GeoBee competition will be held on Friday, March 27, 2020, at Alder Hall Commons, 1315 NE Campus Pkwy, Seattle, WA 98105 from 8 am to 2 pm.

The five types of volunteers needed are described in more detail in the following three links.
