[SBU Board] Fwd: 2019 D19 NAP Finals

[Tim White]

U446 board members,

Forwarding email from Arleen Harvey reporting that McKenzie Myers will be her successor as ACBL Area Supervisor to include responsibility for assignment of DiC’s for tournaments within D19.  (McKenzie has re-located to Eugene, OR.)

Please work with McKenzie in coordination of future requests for DiC’s for U446 tournaments.

Tim

Attractive facility and equipment general fee schedules have been worked out with the East Delta Hall facility and the Duplicate Lite Bridge Club in Delta, BC.  I’m eager to site the Finals in BC in 2019 as in 2018 the finals of all three flights were held in WA.
