The NSRCA provides lost of support to all the D8 pattern contests for example:</div><div apple-content-edited="true">1.) Your contest is advertised and promoted by the NSRCA, its on there web site and this is done at no cost or requirements on your part.</div><div apple-content-edited="true">2.) Your contest if promoted at all the preceding contests to get as much participation as possible.</div><div apple-content-edited="true">3.) NSRCA provides scoring support.</div><div apple-content-edited="true">4.) NSRCA provides awards design and printing support.</div><div apple-content-edited="true">Without the NSRCA's support it would be a lot more work for you to run a contest and I do not think you would even get enough attendance to run a contest.</div><div apple-content-edited="true">All we have been trying to do with preregistration is get a good idea of how many pilots will attend and get the scoring software ready in advance to minimize any delays in getting the contest started. Knowing the number of pilots attending also helps us determine the supply we will need for event.</div><div apple-content-edited="true">The concept of preregistration is something we have discussed at preceding contests and the judging seminar.</div><div apple-content-edited="true"><br></div><div apple-content-edited="true">--Gordon</div><div apple-content-edited="true"><br><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><br class="Apple-interchange-newline">
