Teachers, The Area *VI* and Area *V* Welding Contest is only a month away. Each teacher who plans to attend should register, so that enough materials can be secured for this event. Please click the link below for registration. *On the registration site there will be a question that will ask how many Chapters would be interested in bringing a 2nd complete team to the Welding Contest. Since this is not an official CDE this MAY be a possibility. The number of chapters who indicate an interest will dictate whether bringing a 2nd team is a possibility. This determination will be made as soon as possible, and a notice will be sent out informing you either way. * Welding Contest Registration Link<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?fromEmail=true&formkey=dEd0blJ5QnNiZzhpXzlLVzNWX0NoSUE6MQ> The *Area VI* Welding Contest will be held on *March 19th at Ware County High School. * Registration will begin at *1pm*.
