Business meeting: President Rick Creed welcomed
everyone and
introduced the additional elected officers Richard Tavernaro (North
Cobb) Vice
President, Terry Blish (Marist) Secretary/Treasurer, and Pete Higgins
(Westminster) Training Director.
Treasurer's Report: Terry Blish gave the Treasurer's
report.
Old business: A discussion of the State Meet was
held.
New business: As a follow-up on the State Meet
discussion, it was decided that a better scheduling of events for
the
2005-2006 State Meet would be to have the Diving for both 5A and
1-4A
schools held on Wednesday so as to not mix the diving and swimming
for
either meet on the same day. It was voted to ask for a change in
the
false start procedure. It is our wish to not recall the athletes
if
a false start occurs and to make any disqualifying decisions at
the
conclusion of the race. Dual confirmation will still be required
for
a disqualification.
Election of President, Secretary-Treasurer and
Vice-President:
Richard Tavernaro
(North Cobb) was elected President and Terry Blish (Marist)
was reelected to serve another term
as our Secretary-Treasurer. Since Richard Tavernaro served as our
Vice-President, his move to become President left the position of
Vice-President open. A special election was held for the position
of
Vice-President and Jim Reason (Duluth) was selected as our
new
Vice-President. Congratulations to all three of these outstanding
coaches and leaders.
High Scoring Teams: The high scoring teams in the
A-AA-AAA-AAAA 2004 State Meet were announced and they received the
GHSSCA
plaques for their accomplishment.
