<p>This week on the podcast, I talk about my decision to run for Area 6 Director, and why I think it&#8217;s important that we stay and try to turn the existing organization around instead of quitting.</p>

<p>As mentioned in the podcast, USPSA is requiring me to submit my nomination petition on their particular form, but they have previously allowed petitions that include pages with single signatures. I will have a paper petition with me at Sir Walter for the match this weekend, so if you&#8217;re coming to that match, you can sign it there. Otherwise, if you want to sign my petition, you can <a href="/petition">download the form-fillable PDF here</a>. You can then either fill it out on your computer if you have a way to insert a signature, or print it out, sign the paper, and take a picture. Either way, you can send your signed page to ben@ the URL of this website.</p>



<p>Also I mention in the podcast, here&#8217;s a list of blog posts and podcasts as a starting place for people who want to get a sense of who I am and what I think about the direction USPSA should go.</p>
