USATF Masters allocates money for new Web site
Joy McDonald of Virginia has graciously sent me the 2008 budget for USATF Masters Track & Field, for which she's treasurer. (I've also requested a copy of the USATF Masters minutes from the Hawaii meeting, but Chairman Gary Snyder says they haven't been approved yet. So we'll check back later on that.) The 2008 budget calls for spending $84,700 but expects revenues of $79,500 (a shortfall of $5,200). Whatever. But I'm happy to report that a separate USATF Masters Web site has been funded to the tune of $4,500. This will replace the anemic and out-of-date masters section of USATF.org. Meanwhile, National Masters News is getting its usual $5,000 annual subsidy. For old times' sake, I guess.
