  • Dec. 1981 WAVA-6
    The WORLD Association of NEWSLETTER 6 DECEMBER 1981 THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE llere we are again even if we have once again run over our ~ublication deadline. We'll have to put on some speed over Christmas and catch up next time. Even though the 1981 World Championships were held right at the begin- ning of the year Veteran Track and Field has been anything but subdued. News from all parts of the World indicate wider and wider participation, building on the sustained interests of the pioneers who are still competing with their original enthusiasm after more than 10 years Veteran activi.ty. Thanks to the efforgs of Helen Pain (USA) in promtfnq a tour to the Republic of China and of Clem Green (N.Z.) for spreadino the gospel in the South Seas, we will, no doubt, see even more new faces in Puerto Rico in 1983. I spent a few pleasant days with Roberto Santba, the Diwctor of Recreation for San Juan who visited me, full of enthusiasm for the big task at hand. He pledges that everyone who comes to Puerto Rico in 1983 will enjoy it inim?nsely, athletically and as a visitor. There is much to see and do in this island in the sun. On the subject of the 5th World Veteran Championships we would like to remind you that presentations will be made and decisions reached on the venue not only for the 6th Championships (1985) but also the 7th (1987). This will then leave us in the position of being able to plan 4 years ahead always.
