Rules and Sequence stuff

[Bob Pastorello]

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.

Sounds like the plan should work very effectively.

  List et al,

  Lamar has selected the committee heads for the Rules and Sequence
  committee's:

  Don Ramsey---Rules
  Troy Newman -- Sequences

  I spent some time today with both Don and Lamar regarding this committee
  work. The new setup that Lamar has put into place is to decentralize much of
  the work being done. I think this is a good approach. Over the years we have
  had a very few doing the work and we all either complain or just go along
  with the outcome. Lamar would like to get more of the workload out into the
  group.

  I think personally this is a good idea.

  This means the Rules and Sequence committees will have no DVP's.  We work
  for Lamar and the Board of Directors on behalf of the membership.

  We have a list of those who have submitted emails to Lamar wanting to be
  involved. Don and I discussed the fact that lots of guys want to do
  sequences and only a few specifically asked for Rules only. On the other
  side we felt that the sequence group would need a large manpower base in
  order to crank out the required options for new sequences. A rough idea is 2
  sequences per class in addition to the current one. This is a ton of work
  folks and we need all the help we can get.


  These 2 groups (RULES, Sequences) are going to be working a bunch together.
  These groups are separate and will operate independent of each other...BUT
  Don and I are going to be in a close working relationship to know what is
  going on in the other room so we are not duplicating time and tasks.

  To start with we need some more volunteers. Right now we have lots of guys
  from D6 which is great as they are very active now.  If you have already
  submitted your name thank  you we have it and you will all be contacted in
  the next weeks. However we have a need...

  D8
  D1
  D7
  D5

  I would like to get at least 1 more guy from each of these districts for the
  sequence group, And I'm sure Don can use as many as possible in the Rules
  group.


  ALSO NSRCA membership is not required! We would like outside input as well.
  Remember we are supporting and promoting Precision Aerobatics. And while the
  NSRCA is a huge part of that scene today we understand that there are other
  pilots who are not part of the NSRCA or have not be members in recent years.


  Please submit to me offline only PLEASE for either the Rules or Sequence
  group

  Once I get all the setup I'll put together a core group Maybe 6-8 guys for
  sequence design and then a broader group that will serve as the "Beta
  Testers" I know this is where all you guys want to be!

  This is the way I see the best results coming forward. Lamar and the Board
  has set a pretty aggressive schedule of events with deadlines and I think we
  can make them. The thing is we are going to need to get going on it. I think
  I also express this for Don as well without stepping on his toes....Please
  let us stress if you volunteer we will use you in some form or another.
  Maybe not on the initial core group as we may have an overload of guys in
  say Masters Class or from a certain district....But we will use your time
  and talents to achieve the best results we can.

  Sequence Committee Chair
