D.     Review Proposed Amendments to Spring Rep. Assembly.  - Cindy, WIAA.  Cindy reviewed each of the amendments with the board and rep assembly members. The board will take a position on the amendments at the April meeting.

E.      WSSAAA Report - Bob Dowding.  Register for the WSSAAA Conference (April 9-12) now to avoid the late fee for registering after March 24.  The board was asked to contribute to the Door Prizes for the conference as we have done for many years.  M/S/P to contribute $100 for the WSSAAA Door Prize.  John Wiley will provide two Mariner Tickets as part of that $100 package.

F.      Process for selection of District A.D. of Year – Ken Jaffe.  Mark Cullen told us how impressed Ken was with the quality of the candidates for the award.  He would like to see us have the opportunity to spend more time discussing the candidates.  He would like to see us develop a thoughtful, deliberative process to add depth to the process. This requires a rep for each league to take on the responsibility to get out in front of this and get the paperwork in on time.  Marilyn will move up the process one month so that there is more time for this important task.  We will discuss this again at the April board meeting.  The WSSAAA Rep will provide the criteria for the award.  Nominees will be announced at the December meeting.  Discussion will take place at the January meeting in order to meet the Feb. 1 WSSAAA Deadline.  The district board president should then spearhead the process of putting together the packet for the WSSAAA AD of the Year selection.
