Final Days to Update Database:
Database Chairs: Please have your league's membership updated in the database regardless if members participate in shows or not. If a member is not in the database, they will not be able to be nominated for awards at this year's convention. Directions have been posted for several weeks and takes seconds to complete as only a limited amount of info is needed. Let us know if you need help or have a problem. Updates should be completed by March 31--THIS Thursday.
