Hi All,<br>
Carmella and I are attending. In fact Dave Perry is staying at my
house. As a result of an email from Fred Sommer (trying to
encourage people to serve as judges) the WYC BOD voted to pay the seminar
cost for the club members who were US Sailing Certified Judges, Fred
Sommer, me, and Bruce Martinson (he's in the Bahamas as a judge at a
Laser regatta), and half the cost for the judges in training, Bob
Carpenter and Jon Peterson. Bob and I abstained on the
vote<br><br>
On March 21-22 we are having a US Sailing Judges Workshop open to anyone
who wants to take the test and become a certified judge, or just wants to
learn the rules in great depth over 2 days. This is a very
technical and complex analysis workshop.<br><br>
After the workshop I will update my overhead slides to be able to teach
the revised rules. I'm leaving for Florida the end of March and
will return the end of April.<br><br>
In May I will spend the first two Tuesday evening seminar sessions
teaching the rules with emphasis on the changes. We may move them
to the Ridgedale Library to hold more than the club.<br><br>
<font size=4><b>Is there a need for something else? <br>
I suggest everyone get Dave Perry's new book (order online at US Sailing
on Monday's sale days), study it, and come to the May session to clear up
questions.<br><br>
</b></font>Regards,<br>

Is anyone from Fleet 5 planning on attending the upcoming Dave Perry
Sailing Rules seminar?<br>
<br>
I think someone from our fleet should attend and then give a recap to the
rest of the fleet. Perhaps the fleet can cover the fee for attending from
our treasury in exchange for that person agreeing to provide a summary of
the the rules to the rest of the fleet?<br>
<br>
Thoughts, comments or suggestions? The seminar is this coming Saturday
January 17th at Ridgedale somewhere.<br>
