Re: "Week" Competition

Joe...Have you heard anymore about this weigh-off?  I called down there
about 3 weeks ago and they told me they didn't
have a sponcer and they would notify me. I haven't heard a word.  Do you
have an e-mail address for someone in charge of this?

I have requested the weights you ask for from the two sights.  If they don't
respond soon I'll call again.  Was this for the news letter?  If so whats
the deadline for getting this information in.
