Page 5 Welcome to the 2019 NAMBA National Championships. We are back again in Salt Lake City after several years. Think longer pipes and smaller props when racing at high altitudes. My thanks go out to District 20. They have worked hard to provide a great race venue. Take the time to thank the District 20 members and get to meet them. While we are getting together here to race, Salt Lake City offers so much to visitors. If you have not been to downtown Salt Lake City, schedule some time to visit the Mormon Tabernacle and take in the history of this area. The Wasatch Mountains offer much more than just their famous ski areas. On those days that you don’t race, take a drive up one of the canyons to enjoy the views. Park City is home to the Olympic Center and is an old time mining town. It is easy to spend an entire day in Park City. If the bobsled is running, you can pay for a ride. The sensation of riding in a bobsled is beyond belief. Salt Lake City is definitely a sports town throughout the year. There are col- lege and professional teams in the area. If you look, you can find somewhere to sit back and enjoy a game while in Salt Lake City. I look forward to seeing everyone and do not hesitate to come by my pit to vis- it. Have fun, race your boats, and enjoy the time with the NAMBA members in attendance. Good luck everyone, Alan Hobbs President’s Welcome
