Greetings East Region!
I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season with this balmy weather (close to 60 today in CT) across the east! For those in the hills, from what I can see on various Facebook posts, there is snow on the ground and some of you are able to enjoy the white stuff!
We are 4 weeks away from our winter meeting! I’m looking forward to some energetic discussions that will touch on (a) team events at nationals, (b) update from the AWSA Insurance Taskforce, (c) accomplishments from 2015, and (d) a look at 2016 goals.
If you have a specific topic that you would like to see discussed, please let me know (multitasking@comcast.net).
Also if you want to put your name in the hat to officiate at Regionals and/or Nationals, please let me know as well. This includes safety AND announcers!!!!!
Yes we will have clinic(s) on Sunday (assuming we have a minimum head count of 5). Currently planning a Judge/Score clinic, and there is a request for a drivers clinic – I’ll work through Al Harris to determine if we can arrange an instructor. Please contact me directly if you are interesting in officials clinics. We have 32 judges on the downgrade list (3 needed clinics), 12 scores on the downgrade list (all due to missing tournament credits), 2 TCs that require clinics. I didn’t receive the Driver downgrade list.
Look for details in the coming weeks about the session; in the mean time please RSVP with your attendance for the Saturday meeting to Marie Baker (billandmbaker@comcast.net).
