Tomorrow, Saturday the 10th, starts the 2nd ITSA annual (virtual) general meeting! If you are already an ITSA member you should be able to see the board that will host the meeting (if you have logged into the forum).
I want to encourage everybody to become a member. As the membership page says:
ITSA PURPOSE is: "To promote the sport, game, art and hobby of playing with spinning tops, a universal toy"
Last year we organized the association and had our first meeting and election of directors. This year we raised funds through a raffle and membership drive and had a small part in helping with the world contest in Cleveland: we donated trophies and helped some international competitors to attend. Next year we plan to be more active. But we need the participation of the community. If you become a member today for next year, you will still be able to participate in this year's annual meeting. The membership cost is just $10 per year and includes an embroidered patch (free mailing worldwide).
For those renewing for 2017, I have a limited number of T-shirts donated by Cuper, which I can mail within the continental USA for an extra $3.50. Thanks CUPER!
