We feel that the Southern New England District is fortunate to have a very deep experience base with the technical aspects of the J/30. As part of this meeting, we would like to give you an opportunity to tell us about your issues, concerns, or problems, and we will then try to either provide some solution, or hook you up with others who have the experience to guide you through these issues. Consider this a technical matchmaking session. Be sure to take advantage of this as a lot if items may come up that you weren't even aware of yet, and the answers will most likely be right in the room.

Ok - It's really on tonight 6 April with no snow or ice! The "let's wait the weather out strategy" worked. The RSVP list shows 20 people attending. We'll be in the room upstairs at Bristol YC. Plan to arrive by 6:30 to get pizza and drinks.

Kathy Rotsky will be there early to set up with Mark arriving "just in time".....

For those who couldn't attend, we're posting the presentation and a picture of those who did. Thanks to Kathy & Mark Rotsky for setting this up. It's official that all the previous SNE District officers were reelected without any challengers!

The presentation attached is in PowerPoint or Adobe format to make it easy for reading with whatever software you have.
