Subject: ESL calendar and LISF ESL contests
At last night's club meeting we discussed some proposed changes in how the ESL runs and what opportunities this might present for LISF. This was brought up in the last ESL Newsletter and has been a topic of active discussion on RC Groups and the ESL forums.
1) ESL Calendar - There will be a proposal presented to change how the ESL calendar is handled. If changed this will open up more dates for contests, both HL and TD.
2) If new dates become available, does LISF want to add another ESL contest to the calendar or change our current dates? I am not proposing this but opening it up to discussion. Adding a date brings another major even to our field.
The reason I bring this up is that, if we did want to add another ESL event we should think about this now, HL or TD and what dates we would like to request. If we think our current 3 ESL events is enough, then this is a non-issue and requires no action on our part.
Just opening up the question for consideration. The EOS meeting is on October 9. There will be a vote on this and other proposals. Then we will be looking at the 2011 calendar.
Places where this is being discussed or could be discussed, for those who are interested.
