v  Final comments

Ø  Please read the emails that get sent out to the listserv, especially those from the officers and coaches. They are important. I realize sometime there seems to be an overabundance of them but it is important to stay informed. If you delete an email or neglect to read one and miss a deadline, well you better be a good persuader.

Ø  Listserv use: Please consider what you are sending out on the listserv. 400 people receive the listserv, so please don’ send stuff out to everyone if everyone doesn’t need to see it.
