Yes, Teddy - you are right about it not being a qualifier for you guys in
the US BUT for us up here...where we only have 20 or so people nominating
from the east AND the west for positions on two teams, the persons who have
not qualified at time of nomination still get ranked, although BELOW those
who  have qualified prior to nomination.  THEN if there are places on the
list of 12, in the PAC's case, when all is said and done, those who have
drawn in and want to go will have to qualify!  Tada!
(are we confused yet?)
Barbara
ps.  Thanks for your input!

| Sorry Barb, it would NOT be a qualifier for Vermont PAC.  All the squads
will
| be chosen LONG before then.  Anyone wishing to nominate should get the
100's
| under his/her belt this year and plan on a couple of 100's in the spring
for
| demonstration.
| 
| However, it would be excellent experience for those considering FEI in
the
| future.  Nice time of year...getting hot here and hopefully a bit cooler
and
| nicer up your way.
