    <p>I updated the D8 website to show the event as cancelled. <br>

          ancient Chinese proverb “May you live in interesting times.”
          Anyone feeling serene and balanced right now?  I’m guessing
          we're all feeling like we’ve been drinking from a fire hose
          the past week.<br>
          <br>
          Thanks to all who responded to my email about the judging
          seminar. It’s clear there is not a big appetite for getting
          together in Wilsonvile, so we are canceling that schedule. Pat
          is connecting with the hotel to let them know. Also, Gary and
          I have discussed the possibility of doing a Skype (or similar)
          session. Reflecting on the troubles we had a couple of years
          ago in connecting with even one end point (Boise) we concurred
          that we would be going through a lot of (can you hear me?,
          which button should I push, I can’t see anything etc.) So
          following up on John’s and Bob’s suggestions, my appeal is to
          everyone to take the following steps before the Richland
          contest. (Available on NSRCA web site, url provided below. You
          will need to login.)<br>
          <br>
          1. Review the sequence descriptions, in all classes (FAI-P
          only)<br>
             <a href="https://nsrca.us/index.php/sequences"
            moz-do-not-send="true">https://nsrca.us/index.php/sequences</a><br>
          <br>
          2. Review the Power point presentations to ensure downgrades.<br>
             <a
            href="https://nsrca.us/index.php/powerpoint-presentations"
            moz-do-not-send="true">https://nsrca.us/index.php/powerpoint-presentations</a><br>
          <br>
          3. Take the self test and be diligent about understanding what
          is being graded.<br>
             <a

            moz-do-not-send="true">https://nsrca.us/index.php/certification/certification-tests-fai-only</a><br>
          <br>
          In Richland we’ll have a quick survey to see if anyone needs
          further clarification on a given maneuver.<br>
          <br>
          As you know I had hoped to use the initial hour or so in
          Wilsonville to cover several items of district business. I’ll
          send a separate email to everyone to expand on those topics.</div>
