[Mldxcc] [NCCC] Visalia - New Contest Dinner Organizer is Needed

[Dick Wilson]

Is this something the Mother Lode DX/Contest Club would consider??


Hi Guys,

As many of you know, the well received Contest Dinner at Visalia almost
didn't happen last year.  This was mainly a result of me no longer having
interest in continuing in my role.  With a lot of positive urging on your
part, and some discussions with Steve, K6AW, we were able to reduce the
effort it takes to pull the dinner off, so I gave it one more year.

Even with the leaner effort to stage the Contest Dinner, I no long want to
continue in my role as organizer.  I am hoping someone in the group is
willing to take the reigns on a permanent basis.  On the plus side, K6AW
will remain involved in his role and be a great asset.  Below is a
description of the historical roles and duties for the event.

Please Email me personally ONLY if you have interest in taking over my
position.  If no one steps up to take over, I suspect this dinner will no
longer continue.

73, Kenny K2KW
