What's going on in Pennsylvania......
Being a younger lifter I wasn't around when Pennsylvania was flourishing.
What was a state of 400+ lifters every year dwindled down to 207 in 2000.
And it wasn't the fact that times have changed and lifters weren't here.
I believe this so much that I am involved with Pennsylvania Powerlifting
all the way from Poughkeepsie, NY. You can't tell me that we just lost
our touch.
I took over as state chair in February of this year and here are some
of my goals
-
Membership over 300 this year, as of July 2001 182 members
-
Get qualified lifters certified to be state referees ( 2 completed exams,
4 others in process)
-
Fully enabled web-site with current state records http://www.purepowerlifting.com
