Yea!! When the dates get set, I will be planning my week vacation. Only an hour from me. I can get a bunch of volunteers from my area.

Speaking of volunteers, I was just going to bring some friends, employees, and family from home. Wonder which club/clubs ate hosting the event? I was at the DVORA meeting at Lock Haven, and know how thier vote went.

Congrats

Even though it is 2778 miles from my house, I had such a good time last time we were there I will make every effort to head there again. It was a great race site, and even though it was a mile course.....just from the 1000 foot bouy to turn 1 fun was had by all.

Well the masses have spoken. Glad to here it will be in NY, I had a blast in 08. Just think, that means all the East Coast guys that can win nationals will be seeded for the Moses Lake nationals in 2014!

Good Call

Hope the Region 6 folks bring the cool Digital clock with them for all us old guys who can't see anymore!!!!!!

Later

New York

Congrads to the New York folks....looking forward to racing there next year. Hopefully will not blow bottom out of D stock this time....on a side note..I hope the race committee finds an indoor venue for banquets...my only complaint about 08 was sitting outside etc. Not a huge deal. Oh ya...make the course a mile...not 2 miles like it was in 08 lol.

Be very careful in picking Nationals dates

Hello All,

Please be very careful in deciding on the dates for Nationals going forward. In the state of Indiana, schools are moving closer to a year-round calendar. As such, many schools are starting in the first week of August. If nationals are one week earlier, we and many others may not be able to attend.
