<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I must say I applaud Lamar and the Board's decision
to decentralize like it has been explained. The independence of the
committees, and their need to broadly involve many people working independent of
the NSRCA Board should assure member participation.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Subject:</B> Rules and Sequence stuff</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>List et al,<BR><BR>Lamar has selected the committee heads for
the Rules and Sequence<BR>committee's:<BR><BR>Don Ramsey---Rules<BR>Troy
Newman -- Sequences<BR><BR>I spent some time today with both Don and Lamar
regarding this committee<BR>work. The new setup that Lamar has put into place
is to decentralize much of<BR>the work being done. I think this is a good
approach. Over the years we have<BR>had a very few doing the work and we all
either complain or just go along<BR>with the outcome. Lamar would like to get
more of the workload out into the<BR>group.<BR><BR>I think personally this is
a good idea.<BR><BR>This means the Rules and Sequence committees will have no
DVP's. We work<BR>for Lamar and the Board of Directors on behalf of the
membership.<BR><BR>We have a list of those who have submitted emails to Lamar
wanting to be<BR>involved. Don and I discussed the fact that lots of guys want
to do<BR>sequences and only a few specifically asked for Rules only. On the
other<BR>side we felt that the sequence group would need a large manpower base
in<BR>order to crank out the required options for new sequences. A rough idea
is 2<BR>sequences per class in addition to the current one. This is a ton of
work<BR>folks and we need all the help we can get.<BR><BR><BR>These 2 groups
(RULES, Sequences) are going to be working a bunch together.<BR>These groups
are separate and will operate independent of each other...BUT<BR>Don and I are
going to be in a close working relationship to know what is<BR>going on in the
other room so we are not duplicating time and tasks.<BR><BR>To start with we
need some more volunteers. Right now we have lots of guys<BR>from D6 which is
great as they are very active now. If you have already<BR>submitted your
name thank you we have it and you will all be contacted in<BR>the next
weeks. However we have a need...<BR><BR>D8<BR>D1<BR>D7<BR>D5<BR><BR>I would
like to get at least 1 more guy from each of these districts for
the<BR>sequence group, And I'm sure Don can use as many as possible in the
Rules<BR>group.<BR><BR><BR>ALSO NSRCA membership is not required! We would
like outside input as well.<BR>Remember we are supporting and promoting
Precision Aerobatics. And while the<BR>NSRCA is a huge part of that scene
today we understand that there are other<BR>pilots who are not part of the
NSRCA or have not be members in recent years.<BR><BR><BR>Please submit to me
offline only PLEASE for either the Rules or Sequence<BR>group<BR><BR><A
href="mailto:troy_newman@msn.com">troy_newman@msn.com</A><BR><BR>Once I get
all the setup I'll put together a core group Maybe 6-8 guys for<BR>sequence
design and then a broader group that will serve as the "Beta<BR>Testers" I
know this is where all you guys want to be!<BR><BR>This is the way I see the
best results coming forward. Lamar and the Board<BR>has set a pretty
aggressive schedule of events with deadlines and I think we<BR>can make them.
The thing is we are going to need to get going on it. I think<BR>I also
express this for Don as well without stepping on his toes....Please<BR>let us
stress if you volunteer we will use you in some form or another.<BR>Maybe not
on the initial core group as we may have an overload of guys in<BR>say Masters
Class or from a certain district....But we will use your time<BR>and talents
to achieve the best results we can.<BR><BR>Troy Newman<BR>Sequence Committee
