USAT AAC

Hello. Just a reminder that platform statements to run for the AAC
are due by Thursday, December 1st.

2006 is a really important year to have strong athlete involvement on our committees, so please consider running. So far I have only received 2 platform statements.

To add your name to the ballot, please send me (AlisonAAC@yahoo.com)
a platform statement by Dec. 1 that explains why you are running for
the position. Your platform statement will then be printed on the ballot.

Thanks,
Alison
