I'm asking the chairs for events 6 and 7 to please make sure that
a worker is assigned to post times.  If nobody has signed up, take
one of the not-quite-novices who signed up for course work and
have them do this job, at the time you are checking off workers.
Or call for volunteers.  It is not a high skill position.

Drivers, you can help by volunteering to post for another run
group, and getting someone from that group to pay you back by
posting for your run group.

I have started generating pre-printed forms for posting, and we
have had pretty good posting the last two events.  But I noticed
yesterday that only one of the first 4 run groups had an assigned
time poster -- I had to do two groups myself.

I did notice that the postings were crowded during the active run
groups.  The purpose is to let drivers see how their competitors
do on their runs and set their goals for later runs.  Plus, it's
fun to see how the competition develops during a group, and
others were also checking.  Finally, it gives drivers a chance to
check whether their cards are properly marked by insuring the
times they got on timing slips match what was posted from
the cards.  People were having fun looking at these posted times!
This does not happen if there is no time poster.  So we're
depending on you, chiefs!

Turns out I won't be at Round 6, so I'll have to depend on someone
else to print out the posting sheets and tape them up before
run group 1.  Any volunteers?  (Don't print before Friday,
I am making format changes to make them smaller.)
