    Sounds great!  I sent my money in.  Now all I need to know is how
    to get to the Nashua library.  Can someone give detailed directions
    for someone coming from the South, specifically Needham (128 and
    Rte. 9 intersection).
    Thanks,
    Dave
    

    	Directions to Nashua Public Library:
    
    	1. Get to Route 3 North.
    
    	2. Take Route 3 North to Exit 5 in Nashua, NH. When you get
    	   off of Route 3, you'll be on Kinsley St. in Nashua.
    
    	3. Take Kinsley St. all the way to Main St. It should be about
    	   1 1/2 miles or about 4 lights.
    
    	4. Get into the left lane.
    
    	5. Turn left (head North) on Main.
    
    	6. Go through a couple of lights and look for Temple St.
    
    	7. Turn right (head East) on Temple St. (which is one way)
    
    	8. Stay in the left hand lane and bear left at the triangle.
    
    	9. The library is about an 1/8th of a mile ahead of you on
    	   your right.

    I was informed last night by the USCF that there was a scheduling
    problem with one of the clinic instructors.  They have therefore
    made a change in the instructors.  I guess because this is an olympic
    year the coaches have a busy schedule leading up to the olympics.
    
    Connie Carpenter Phinney can not make it this year.  It is unfortunate
    since we were guaranteed by the USCF that the stated instructors would
    be available.  However, they have replaced her with the following
    instructor;
    
    			Andy Weaver
    				o '83 Pan Am Gold Medal Winner
    				o '84 Olympic Bronze Medalist
    
    Hopefully those signed up for the clinic didn't do so just to see
    Connie Carpenter Phinney.  If so, send the NVC a note saying you have
    changed your mind because of the inctructor change and we will refund
    your $10.00 .

    Don,
    
    Since June 4th is just about here, do we just show up?  I never
    heard back that my money was received, so I assume that all I need
    to do is give my name when I get there.
