WV 2008 is pro worlds.invite only...athletes are already qualified and invited(except 4 of the americans who will be picked from a rankings board) go to Rv's site to find out who is going so far

LOL...I had already planned the KC event right after finishing this years. (But then I am OCD...a little)

So would like to get in two minimum...had to miss St. Louis 'cause of the knee. So KC, St. Louis, and I think there is one more in KS that I may attend. (I have to take off work to get to these things.)

15 in a year...wow. That'd make my boss a little ticked off. :^)

I have already started planning the 2008 season. I am basing many of the '08 games I will attend on what I learned this year. Will most likely attend the same 12 as '07 season with additional ones added up to 15 or more.

Had a great rookie season grabbing over a dozen medals in individual and overall placings. Now that I know the fields that I will compete on I can practice for similar situations leading up to the games.

The MASA posts sign-ups for games around one month before the event. First come first signed up. I plan on being at Bridgeport again next year. It will be a doozie! Possibly 4 flights going on at the same time.
