- Sectional meet update
Much tangible progress has been made by the R-22 committee, which has been
charged with implementing a series of sectional meets in 2001. There is to be a
meeting of the zone directors, the implementation committee, and Ron Van Pool in
Denver on January 21st to finalize a plan for approval by the USA Swimming Board.
Once approval is granted, zones will begin a plan of action to develop their sectionals.
Within the Eastern Zone, each LSC, through their Gen. Chair, Age Group Chair,
Senior Chair, and Coaches Reps., will have the opportunity for input and recommen-
dation before any final decisions are made as to how the sectionals are to be
competed.
- Reminder to Division Chairs
Chairs are asked to review their programs and prepare a statement of their needs for
the next fiscal year. Proposals for the new budget are to be submitted to the Treasurer
by the February Board meeting.
