WMA slates candidates forum for Monday night in Lahti

World Masters Athletics will elect several officers Wednesday at its biennial General Assembly, including president and vice president for stadia meets. Although prez rivals Stan Perkins and Rex Harvey have addressed questions, others have not. Few know where VP-stadia candidates Serge Beckers and Sandy Pashkin stand on key issues. That could change Monday night (August 3), when they’ll face delegates in an informal session at 7:20 p.m. at the ski museum adjacent to the main stadium. The museum can seat 150, I’m told. I also hear that acting (appointed) president Tom Jordan wanted to give folks a chance to hear from the candidates before the General Assembly, which won’t have much time for Q&A. Post your ideas for questions, and I might pose them to the candidates. Specify which office the query is for. BTW, the stadium PA announcer didn’t mention the candidates forum at all. So who knows who has heard about it?
