The purpose of the study to is gather data to form partnerships with Chambers of Commerce and other business entities in state event cities in order to explore ways to keep costs down to schools and families/spectators. No personal information is collected within the survey and all responses are anonymous. If you have attended a state event from 2023 State Volleyball through now, the SDHSAA, and us as a member school of the SDHSAA, would appreciate your help in taking a few minutes of your time to complete the survey.
