Lunch and other refreshments will be provided. Registration will be limited to a total of 20 teams. A school may enter more than one team, but we will try to involve as many different schools as possible. All participating students and teachers will receive an Economics Challenge T-shirt. The top team in each division of the Rhode Island competition advances to the New England regional competition at the Federal Reserve Bank in Boston.
Teams consist of three or four students, but four is preferred.
