Eurovets seek technical director on eve of major championships

Nice joint for a track meet in Turkey. Whodathunk it?
Here’s Kurt’s letter to his member nations:
To whom it concerns
Dear EVAA Affiliates,
Last weekend EVAA Council had a SKYPE meeting about the resignation of EVAA Technical Director Nicola Maggio.
He resigned on Monday 16th at the meeting in Torun (EVACI City 2015).
To make a decision – so shortly before our EVAA Stadia Championships in Izmir – I asked EVAA Council members for a proposal.
We all agreed to nominate Jean Marcel Martin for “Acting Technical Director” until the General Assembly in Izmir.
We are aware that EVAA Council has to consist of five elected members of different countries.
In our constitution it is written that EVAA Council has to nominate a person as “acting” until the next General Assembly.Jean Marcel Martin is the Technical Manager of Stadia and the one who was last in Izmir for the technical inspection.
He will take the position of “Acting Technical Director” until EVAA Affiliates have elected a new person for this office.
Therefore, from this moment on we need proposals from EVAA Affiliates for the nomination of the EVAA Technical Director.
Never before has a situation like that occurred. Consequently we have to have a new timetable for this nomination – the constitution does not mention anything about such a circumstance.
EVAA Council proposal:
Application procedures are open from this moment onwards, until July 9th. This way we can add the names to the GA Booklet, which has to be produced during the weekend after July 9th and send out to you via email 45 days before, and when printed, send directly to the affiliates.
For comments, please don’t hesitate to contact EVAA Council’s Acting Secretary Helena Maria Pieres de Carvalho.
Best regards and see you in Izmir
Kurt Kaschke
EVAA President
And here’s info from Eurovets site:
Entry for Izmir will be closed on July 6th
Up to know LOC and EVAA are waiting for the last entries to EVACS Izmir 2014.
If you decide to enter – just do it until the end of the weekend!
There are some difficulties in doing the payment online because some athletes are without a credit card.
In this case please contact your federation, the responsible person will assist you.
The next news will be published after the closing of the entries and the updating of Jean-Marcel Martin.Preparations of the 19th European Veterans Athletics Championship, which shall start on 22 August 2014, continues.
The shortcomings at the three athletics fields, where the competitions will be held, have been made up. The data cables of the three fields are re-spanned. The lines of the tracks are re-drawn. The sandpits are completed with the sand brought from Denizli.
AtatĂĽrk Stadium and Seha Aksoy Athletic field are going to be used for running. Hammer throw and shot put throw shall be carried out at throws field.
Soner Cosan Hall within the AtatĂĽrk Stadium shall be used for warm-up and training.
Turkish athletes are training hard to win medals in this event to be held in their own country.
Sea season opened in Izmir. There are a lot of hotels in world famous towns of Izmir, namely Cesme and Alacati. Izmir’s restaurants and bars at the beach are also full. We believe that the participants of the Veteran Championships shall spend great time in Izmir if they wish. Moreover, there are historical places around to visit, such as Ephesus ruins and Mother Mary Church. We recommend the participants to visit these places.
We remind the ones who have not entered yet to make their entry by 6 July 2014.
Izmir waits for you.
