[Tim White]

We do not yet know, and might not know for several weeks, Bothell’s 2019 availability dates.

> Regarding directors, Jeff Jacob will have experience running a NLM regional concurrent with a sectional (he's doing this in the Spring 2019 at the Seaside Regional).  I've pinged Arleen to see if we can get Jeff assigned to help with our event--should make for a smooth event.

There is lots to be done: setting up speakers, door prizes, advertising at clubs, schools, private games and sectionals...but I'm convinced this is a way to help grow our games and keep newbies engaged.  Stay tuned!
