NEW BUSINESS

Mike Budai: In the interest of KCBS helping Organizers, I have received a request from an Organizer that KCBS should develop a contest judge program that for a fee, KCBS would supply to a contest all the services of a judge coordinator. This would greatly aid new and smaller contests that don't have the resources to have a dedicated judge coordinator.
