Hi All, a general question

According to my O Sources .... , "Last winter Tom Overbaugh, Clem, and Vadim and Bob Burg held a [DVOA] course setting - training at Schulkill Center.  Maybe 12 people attended? "

Question, can someone please contact me with the - names and emails of these new potential course setters (the attendance list) for me to recruit for the Nov 11 Quail Hill DVOA local O Meet?
THe person or 2 persons ( like one can do White, yel and OJ and the 2nd vol can do brown, green and red courses, teamwork for example) ////
FYI I am also a experienced  Course setter at quail Hill (Manalapan NJ) and that may help with this key volunteer position.
This is an important local NJ O meet, and I have decided to use the social networking ability of the club eboard to "recruit" for this position .  thanks in advance
Bob Rycharski      ED on Nov 11,  cell   973-513-5146 if you are interested

Hey Bob,

I've never set a course but have cleaned quite a few......It's time I give back a little ( I run in them but rarely volunteer for anything but clean up)
I ran at quail hill 2 yrs ago and it should be an easy course to set.

I have the 11th open so far and am from jersey....albiet north jersey.

let me know what I have to do.......I didn't take the above mentioned class and wouldn't be comfortable doing alone.....but give me a master map and some circles and I should be able to help pull it off.

my email is in the database.
