[SBU Board] Beating the Drum in Federal Way

[Tim White]

Thanks for doing this John.

During your pitch(es) for the May sectional, you might note to the folks that the start times for some of the sessions have been moved up.  At least one south-ender came up to me at Vasa and made it known that he and others down south prefer earlier start times.
