We have a big problem in New Mexico; particularly in the Albuquerque area. There's a major shortage of race officials. If this shortage is not resolved immediately, races WILL be cancelled (Tierra del Sol on March 25 is in serious jeopardy).

I realize we racers want to race and often are not willing to judge at a race and that's completely understandable. But I also know we racers have family, friends co-workers, etc who might be willing to help out. 

"So how can I help" you ask. Pamela Thullen is holding a CAT-C Officials Clinic on March 19th. I'm requesting that we all consider becoming an official and/or asking as many family, friends, teammates, co-workers etc to help us out. Anyone interested in attending the Officials Clinic on March 19th please contact Pamela Thullen at pamalanmcycling@gmail.com ASAP so we can make the appropriate arrangements. 

Other things to note. Becoming an official does not mean you're committed to judge each and every race. You can pick and choose. Also, every official is paid a small fortune after performing their services. :D

Thanks for your consideration,

Dennis
