Greetings To All:

Have we ever got a few announcements here for all of you. Over the last few 
weeks TARA has been working extremely hard to put together a contesting 
schedule that I hope all of you find to be as exciting as myself. We've 
developed a 
contesting schedule for 'ALL' seasons and we now bring all of our contests 
together under TARA's "Four Seasons Contesting" banner. But, we have much more 
for 
you...keep reading!

As I mentioned TARA has brought all of it's contests together and we now call 
them part of our "Four Seasons Contesting." TARA will now sponsor the 
following contests: 


"The DPX" - Digital Prefix Contest (Spring)
"The Grid Dip-Shindig" Digital psk-rtty Grid Square Contest  (Summer)
"The PSK Rumble" - The World's 1st PSK Contest!  (Fall)
TARA RTTY Melee - With changes for the 21st Century. (Winter) 

Each of these contests will run yearly. We have decided to drop the Spring 
Rumble - "The Spring Wake-up" in order to keep with our Four Seasons concept. 
Our goal was to bring you the very best of Digital Contests for 'ALL' seasons 
and I believe we've done it! But, that's still not everything! Nope, you got to 
keep reading. 

Each year TARA is going to crown the "Digital King or Queen" in our "NEW" 
Tor'ney! We believe a lot of you work hard at these contests and it's time that 
we recognize just who is going to regarded as a World Leader of our digital 
modes! We believe we have a well rounded program and the challenge will be 
difficult but after all we're talking about a "World Champion" don't forget. I 
hope 
we've got your attention now? If so, please keep reading.

TARA has been looking for volunteers to pick up some of the new management 
positions we have with our new programs and we are proud to announce the 
following managers. Please give them a warm welcome and show them your support. 

Ed Eades, KC2HNC - PSK Rumble Manager

Karen Smith, KB2UUC - Press/Media Manager
