[Regia-NA] "what's an Authenticity Officer look like"?

[Brand N Flossi]

Each group should have its own AO. Flossi is ours, who then if a question
comes her way she can't answer she then takes it up with the Regia AO one a
one to one basis to get the answer.

Either way Email Steve to death (Regia's New AO)

Best,

Brand

cover half the travel expenses to have a A.O and Training Marshall come over
from the UK.
> This has been a much requested need and such needs as have been explained
still have not been fully addressed from the UK.
> Perhaps we ask on the open UK list for any officers that have training
capability if they want to come over for Pensic - again I realise this is
out of reach for some N.A. members but if there is sufficient interest from
one far flung quarter then surely additional travel can be arranged for
these UK officers.
