May a student use one-of-a-kind artifacts or expensive props in his/her History Day Project?
Yes. History Day officials however, are NOT responsible for any losses sustained by student participants. The responsibility of security lies entirely with each student who brings these artifacts to the competition. It is suggested that the student set up the exhibit or performance, and after being questioned by the judges, remove the item(s) from the exhibit area to a “safe place” for the remainder of that competition. There is a period before and after a performance when the student(s) once again must take “special care” to protect any item(s) used in the performance, because these competitions are held in public places. No potential weapons are permitted. Students may use props but are not allowed to have any potentially dangerous items, such as unloaded guns, knives, mace, etc.
