HTC NEWS 209 - 37 WE SURE WOULD LIKE TO KEEP YOU A MEMBER of the HUNTSVILLE TRACK CLUB, BUT you must PAY your 2013 club DUES. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬§▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Think you’ve paid your HTC dues? ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬§▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ EVERYBODY needs to CHECK the following LIST. We know some of you THINK you PAID your DUES, but some of you HAVE NOT – so please check the list. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬§▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

The following list of HTC members have not paid dues for 2013 (THIS YEAR), or have not notified the club that they do not desire to continue as a member. We sure don’t want to lose you as a member, but it is now May and we cannot continue to carry you as a member the rest of the year if you don’t plan to continue your mem- bership in the club and pay the required club dues. This is our final notice.

If your name is on the list and you are sure you paid your dues (have a canceled check), then you should call Louise Tinsley at 256-881-9077 so she can correct the problem.

Mail you receive from the HTC has the date you must pay dues on the top line of the mailing label. If it has “DUES DUE JANUARY 1, 2013 you have not paid dues this year. If it has “DUES DUE JANUARY 1, 2014 your dues are paid for this year.

From past years we are aware that many of you do plan to continue your member- ship, but just haven’t gotten around to doing it yet. A lot of others have moved with- out notifying us of your new address and are no longer receiving your HTC mail (we mail third class on a non-profit organization permit that does not forward this class mail). If you have a change of address YOU MUST NOTIFY US.

We allow almost a six month grace period (that’s unusual for any type organization), but near the end of June we will delete all those that have not paid dues for this year from the HTC membership database. That means you will no longer receive the HTC NEWS, meeting notices, race flyers, email notices, score on the Grand Prix, enter the three HTC free races at no cost, eat for free at the dinner meetings that are complimentary to members, and all the other HTC and RRCA membership benefits.

We sure hope you will take care of your renewal right away, but if you really do plan to drop your membership it was sure nice to have had you as a club member. Good luck and we hope you will rejoin some day in the future.

HTC NEWS 209 - 46 ALABAMA STATE RECORDS

Compiled and Maintained by Buck Jones § CRITERIA: Criteria for a state record include the following: (1) Alabama resident (2) U.S. citizen (3) Race run in Alabama (4) Certified courses. BIRTHDATES: Anyone noting their name in the state record listings, please call or write if I show no birth date for you. CHANGES: Potential changes to this list or any future list are welcome, just call or write me at the phone- address listed below. HELP: Race Directors, Club Board Members, and Runners, help me a little and I will be able to provide you with accurate state records.

Alabama Running Data Center - Phone: 256-539-1922 C-O Buck Jones, 2920 Eastern Shore Drive, Owens Cross Roads, AL 35763

e-mail: [email protected]

P - Pending Record, birthdate/hometown required within 6 months of race date or will be dropped. a - Point to Point Course, better than State Record but not eligible for State Record. * - Non U.S. Citizen, better than the State Record but not eligible for a State Record. # - Best Time for Distance-Sex on Point to Point Course. T - Tie performances for same age.

RACE DIRECTORS: Race directors please note the following information if you have a certified race. On your race results I need individual ages, not just by age groups. Also I need the home town listed, in order to confirm the runner is an Alabama resident. Without the above I can't use the results, unless the runner is well known to me. I do need birthdates for record holders and would suggest that all race directors add a place on the entry forms. I would not expect birthdates to be added to the race results but they would be available should I or USATF Road Running Information Center need them. USATF RRIC is the national data center for long dis- tance road-track racing, having taken over from the NRDC. I will process all Alabama race results as the state record keeper through to USATF RRIC.
