Ronn Mauck
District 8 Director |
It appears that neither IN or MI will be sending teams
from their states to the San Diego Convention to compete
in the Youth contests. There will be some Youths from
these states going and competing as individuals however.
If there is interest in doing so, we can form a team
from any youth members that reside within the District
to compete in the team competitions. I need a list of
any individuals that are interested in doing this by
July 1st in order to get the teams formed and entered.
Thanks,
Ronn
