I  will allow a June 30/July 1 regional CONDITIONALLY...
a) if it absolutely has to happen because of scheduling and events (NARHAMS 
just held a one day regional with 23 participants). Can sport scale judging 
(if being flown) be done on a Fri evening?  What events? I can help with 
suggestions for easy events that won't take up a lot of time and effort (I'm 
pushing here for a one day regional)
b) That I have the Point Award Sheet in my hands by July 13. I will accept 
"Contest Manager" file.

On the sanction application, put down the contest date as June 30... special 
exception of running over into July 1. THERE WILL NOT BE A RAIN DATE AND IN 
CASE OF INCLEMENT WEATHER... NO MAKE UP

    I'd say *planning* to straddle the contest year is not a good idea
 (like bringing up the question of just which contest year should it
 count towards?).  I know of at least one past NCBChairman who wouldn't
 allow a meet to be *continued* into the next contest year.
 
    It usually is a bit of a push to get all of the late June meets
 done and compiled prior to NARAM (think of CPAs in mid-April), so a
 June/July meet wouldn't help.
 
    Try running it by Tom Lyon, he's da man with da power!  With the
 June 30/July 1 weekend, there are probably other CDs thinking along
 the same lines, so an official statement would be helpful.
