The Meeting Agenda
By Al Myers
Before long the USAWA National Championships will be here, and with that the annual meeting of the USAWA. We have one meeting per year to make our major yearly decisions and we always coordinate that with our Nationals.
The Annual Meeting will be held at the meet venue on Saturday following the day’s lifting. So the date for the meeting is SATURDAY JUNE 24th. Start time for the meeting will be right after the lifting, so around 4 to 5 PM. Everything is pretty straight forward on the meeting agenda this year. There doesn’t seem to be any controversial decisions to be made, so I’m hoping for a short meeting.
