   2. MATCH Shelley Knuth

      1.  Campus Champions are looking to organize a presentation to their community members from service Tracks.

         1. “Writing on behalf of the Campus Champions leadership team (CCLT). I’ve been a member since 2018 and will be transitioning off after our new cohort is onboarded. We would like to invite reps from each track to join two one^{(changed 6 Sep 2022)} upcoming, regularly scheduled Champions meetings on the September 13th and September 20th at 3PM ET, to talk to the Champions about your respective tracks and the ACO. The Champions are accustomed to hearing from Ken Hackworth about allocations, and the CCLT are requesting people at about the same level from each of your tracks. We envision this being a panel with short 5 minute introduction per track, followed by Q&A, moderated by one of the leadership members. Most of the audience will have seen the PEARC talks, so this can be a bit more nuts and bolts. Can you please let me know if your track (and the ACO) would like to participate in these calls, and if so, who you would like to send? Thank in advance and hope to see you there!”
