IN GENERAL
how tributes are chosen
__ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __
1. The reaping is an annual event that takes place in every district before each Hunger Games, where the tributes of the upcoming Games are chosen.
2. Each district's escort randomly chooses the name of one male and one female tribute from two separate glass jars. Those picked are now the official tributes for the upcoming Games.
3. If someone so chooses, he or she may take the place of a tribute in a process known as volunteering. This is often done by Careers, individuals who spend their lives training to compete in the Hunger Games.
4. For the residents of various districts, any child between the ages of twelve through eighteen, if it is needed, they can apply for a tessera, which supplies them with a meager supply of grain and oil. They can also choose to do this for each of their family members as well. However, each tessera they sign up for puts another slip with their name in the reaping glass jar.
