DON'T FORGET CRYSTAL BRIDGES - From 8:00 to Noon tomorrow, the Ozark Hill Hikers bring us a walk featuring the NEW Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art in Bentonville, Arkansas. Orchards Park, Bentonville, will be the Start Location and your walk will be rated 1A and meander through wooded areas around and near Bentonville's newest art treasure, Crystal Bridges Museum. You can even grab lunch in the museum and take a tour after an exhilerating walk! See you there!
IVV CERTIFICATION STAMP HANDLING REQUIREMENTS- AVA Headquarters has begun to more closely enforce AVA Policies concerning IVV Certification Stamps. Please handle all IVV Certification Stamps with care or a damage fee of $15.00 will be billed directly to your Club account. Damage is defined as:
Stamp handle stained with Excessive Ink
Writing on IVV Certification Stamp handle with permanent marker
Holes drilled in the handle
Labels/Tape left on IVV Certification Stamp handle
Failure to pay damage fees can also result in delinquencies to Club accounts, which can carry further administrative sanctions for the Club.

LOUISIANA'S STATE CAPITAL WALK - The Baton Rouge Striders Assn. has ceased to do business and obtained permission from the AVA to close it's YREs, including the Baton Rouge State Capital YRE No. 0628. Efforts to find another sponsoring Club for that event have been unsuccessful. Current plans to revitalize the event involve it being sanctioned by the South Central Region Director (ME!). An event coordinator in Baton Rouge or some close city or town is being sought. Should you know or have a connection with a person (maybe a walker) in that area, please contact them or put me into contact with them regarding this extremely significant role. Realizing that the 50/51 (States/Capitals) Program is being devalued by the absence of walks in two State Capitals, I hope each of us feels it important to revitalize the Baton Rouge State Capital Event as quickly and deliberately as possible!
