Sunflower House, a child abuse prevention center and child advocacy center, is a
non-profit, United Way agency serving Wyandotte and Johnson Counties in Kansas.
The result of a successful merger between the Child Abuse Prevention Coalition,
founded in 1977, and the Sunflower Children’s Center, founded in 1994,
Sunflower House is in a unique position to impact this leading deterrent to
child health through three program initiatives: Education, Child Assessment
& Medical. Sunflower House is a full member agency of the National
Children’s Alliance, our national affiliate that ensures adherence to best
practice standards of its federally recognized and supported multidisciplinary
approach to child abuse investigations. Sunflower House was recognized as the
2002 Outstanding Crime Victim Service Organization in Kansas by Attorney
General Carla Stovall and awarded 2002 Outstanding Organization at the Kansas
Governor’s Conference on Child Abuse and Neglect.

opinion of the car
Each
item listed above will be scored on a scale of 1 - 5. Any area that
cannot be seen or is not accessible (i.e. trunk or hood closed or windows
rolled up) will receive a score of 0.
In
addition to the mandatory 1 - 5 scoring, the judges may award up to 3 optional
points for each criteria. This was devised specifically for the H2O classes to
level the playing field between "garage queen show-only" or
"fresh off the showroom floor stock" vehicles and daily-driven
modified vehicles. The air-cooled classes will also adopted
this same scoring method for their cars this year to help simplify the
organization of the judging.
Judges:
All
judging is done on a volunteer basis, and someone will announce over the PA
system when they're ready for judges to congregate at the main building to pick
up scoring sheets. We encourage all show entrants and spectators to
participate in the judging. Judging for each class is done with two
people, and those two judges will confer with each other and agree upon the
point value to award each car for each criterion. Those who have never
judged before are paired up with someone who has experience. You can
judge any class your car is not entered in. These guidelines were
devised for the highest level of fairness.
