Dear Region 4 Community,

I would like to announce that Windee Weiss is now the Region 4 Technical Chair (RTC).  She will do a great job serving our region!  I want to thank you for many great years of service as I held  this position and am  so proud of our athletes, coaches, judges and businesses.

Windee has a new email:  Windee4rtc@gmail.com.  Please go through proper channels with your questions:  Go to the State SJD, or SACC first.  If they cannot answer your questions they will then go to Regional personnel and National.

I look forward to continuing serving Region 4 and now all Regions as National Technical Chair (NTCC).  Thank you so much.

Good luck and Welcome Windee!

Linda Thorberg
