come out Washington DC Obviously few items missing scenario above important very large portion United States has available far fewer 52 weekends year events can comfortably occur Yes know frozen-finger events happenand theyre sanctioned number relatively small too weekends clubs tend avoid because holidays exceptions well some events very successful As illustration number years ago two small clubs Midwest combined forces sanction Pattern/Scale contest Effingham Illinois very well attended would probably still around today run several years absolutely disastrous weather held Mayon Mothers Day weekend dont think anyone ever did might have interesting exercise survey contestants attended event regularly see abnormally high divorce rate Coordinating sanctioned events difficult time-consuming task performed 26 very dedicated individuals certain guidelines exist regarding job accomplished pitfalls requiring judgment experience example sanctioning process provides event separation distances Between Class events distance shown 100 miles same true Class C events Class AA 300 miles Class AAA AAAA 450 miles distances cast bronze AMA rule book sentence preceding distances says general same date should least After list distances stated distances should scaled down highpopulation density areas scaled up low-population areas live densely populated mid-Atlantic northeastern states would become concerned guidelines strictly adhered other hand sections country driving hundreds miles event common So-o-o coordinators faced Solomon-like judgment calls faced situations experience comes play specific knowledge area types activity area essential doesnt end Years ago task much simpler because events straightforward generally competitive nature has changed considerably As have noted recent years half sanctioned events rule book competition oriented fall vast catchall category Class C events range way noncompetitive fly-in so-called funfly its very

Mothers Day weekend dont think anyone ever did might have interesting exercise survey contestants attended event regularly see abnormally high divorce rate Coordinating sanctioned events difficult time-consuming task performed 26 very dedicated individuals certain guidelines exist regarding job accomplished pitfalls requiring judgment experience example sanctioning process provides event separation distances Between Class events distance shown 100 miles same true Class C events Class AA 300 miles Class AAA AAAA 450 miles distances cast bronze AMA rule book sentence preceding distances says general same date should least After list distances stated distances should scaled down highpopulation density areas scaled up low-population areas live densely populated mid-Atlantic northeastern states would become concerned guidelines strictly adhered other hand sections country driving hundreds miles event common So-o-o coordinators faced Solomon-like judgment calls faced situations experience comes play specific knowledge area types activity area essential doesnt end Years ago task much simpler because events straightforward generally competitive nature has changed considerably As have noted recent years half sanctioned events rule book competition oriented fall vast catchall category Class C events range way noncompetitive fly-in so-called funfly its very
