<DIV>Thanks for the suggestion Gary. Perhaps one of the major equipment suppliers wouldn't mind having their equipment used for this service during the event. (?)</DIV>

<DIV>I will be meeting with clubs and individuals in the southeast during the next few months to gather ideas for presentations, workshops, hospitality suites etc. We will be trying to discover those topics that are relevant and interesting to contesters that will foster camaraderie and competitiveness within our region.</DIV>
