Governor

Greetings,
Welcome
to our first district newsletter! We expect to send out
newsletters twice a month to keep everyone in the loop. We have several
exciting new developments to start the new year off right.
First,
we are scheduling the first ever Northeast Zone A Regional
Championship. This multi-sport event will take place in
July. We are expecting to attract over 2,500 athletes
from Maine to Virginia
and as far west as Ohio.
We are in the process of finalizing the details and will provide
periodic updates. The official kick off will be the press
conference on Monday, January 26th. Check below for more details.
In
addition, we have also updated our website. We encourage everyone
to take a look and submit suggestions. We also would like
everyone to send in news updates and images so we can keep the website
informative and fresh.
See
below for updates on all the other events we have plans over the coming
months!
All
the best,
Jack
Bethke
Governor
