SEARCH FOR BAAA MEMBER TO ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR CROSSROADS BOOTH: Vince Calabrese has overseen the management of the Crossroads BAAA booth since its inception ten years ago. He now feels it is time to give up this responsibility and pass it on to some new blood, either one person or two. The job involves setting up the yearly exhibition schedule in the latter part of the year, keeping track of who is showing and when they need to change, keeping track of who has paid (along with the treasurer) and acting as a referee. While this sounds daunting, the booth pretty much runs itself now. Vince already has at least one person who has volunteered to help whomever does the job and Vince will be available to act as a consultant. He will set up the exhibition schedule for the coming year (2020) which runs the calendar year. If we can’t find someone to do the job by the end of this year, we will probably have to give up the space. Please let Vince know if you are interested in assuming this responsibility ASAP You can contact Vince at vpcalartist@msn.com
