| NWSA Annual Meeting; Partnership
with US SAILING
NWSA will hold a strategic planning meeting
at its annual meeting in Colorado Springs, CO, March 14th.
The outcome will produce a business plan for the next two years,
with more programs and fun events for NWSA members. The meeting
will be followed by two days of meetings with the Women's Sailing
Committee of US SAILING to work on the new partnership. We
believe the partnership will provide NWSA members with access to
programs we do not now provide and likewise provide women in US
SAILING with access to our programs.
