It would be a welcome aide to have directors post competition dates for the 06-07 school year. At my school, we sit down as a fine arts staff in late April and develop our calendar. Having a database of this information early on would be awesome. I do contact directors to get dates but sometimes I am afraid I might be missing a jewel of a competition in or out of state when making our schedule that far in advance.

Thanks for your consideration!
