NOTHERS SENIOR OFFICIALS

I am looking for officials for Nothers Invitational (Nov 26-28 at CGAC). This is the first major LAC-hosted meet of the season, and is double-ended, so we need lots of officials. 

For all positions other than Timer and Stroke & Turn, please email [email protected]. Let me know what sessions you are available.

If you have taken any clinics and would like to try out new positions, feel free to make requests and I will see what I can do. If you are comfortable working the ARES electronics or would like to learn, please let me know.

Thanks

Denise McDonald
