ATTENTION ALL LIFTERS!! All meet results are posted within a week of receipt from the various meet directors. During this past year, we are receiving the data later and later. If your results are not posted in a timely manner, we did not receive them or information was missing, like pro or amateur. We will only make one written request via email or text requesting the results. We will not continually follow up for the results. Finally, if the results are posted and your name does not appear, then you did not have an up-to-date IPA membership card. Best, Fred Fischer, President By Tom Baldwin|2023-07-12T15:40:17+01:00July 12th, 2023|Uncategorized| Read More 0
