1. As you know, the weekends of April 22, April 29-30 and May 5-6-7 are extremely busy ones for us. If you are available, we can really use your help. Please reach out to Dave Johns at  davejohns@comcast.net 987-764-1880.
It is also a good time to get your 2023 MTFOA Spring Availability sheet in if you haven't already done so.

2. OTHER OFFICIATING OPPORTUNITIES
 
Dear Friends,
As You may know, I relocated back to California last year but have kept in contact with Matt Ruxton and other SO Folks.  Matt asked me to send out the info regarding our Special Olympics Track Officials' needs for Summer Games at Harvard. It is June 10 and 11th, 2023.  I've included a breakdown of our needs and estimated times.

You all have taken Special Olympics track to the higher level experience for the athletes and we can't thank you enough.   Looking forward to seeing you all at Harvard.   Pat Diskin  patmdiskin@gmail.com>
