The OHSAA is doing exactly what the Governor told it to do. I’m sure though you’d have stood up to the governor and said No!
Sounds like you're pissed because you won't have as many people in the Convo the rest of the week. and your school year just got extended 5 days with the closure of the Athens Cith Schools. All of these preventative measures are exactly what should be done. It's called spreading the curve to allow current medical capacity to handle the increase in cases. It's kind of like a timed entry to an event or site - spread the crowd out over a whole day and everyone gets proper treatment.
Not at all, I’ll work year round, doesn’t matter to me. Proof you don’t really know me as you would know I’m not an advocate of summer break and would like to see a reform of school years. 2nd, the Convo and the people working will put on the best show possible, wether it’s Columbus East who brought 11 fans one year, or Chillicothe who brought 8,000. It’s all the same to us. I will tell you this though, you are always free to volunteer to help events like this that bring people and positive press to the city and university.
I'd start with backing up the start of the school day until at least 8:30. As for volunteering, that's what I'm doing when you see me out at the high school as often as you do. Unfortunately the closing of the schools affects the next three volunteer sessions - mentoring a group of 5 students, the Business Advisory Committee and possibly Career Day. Flexibility and creative problem solving will be the order of the day for the next two months.
Maybe you could go mentor the commissioner of the MAC, the CBI, the NCAA and the NBA. While you are at it talk to the governor and give him counsel and ask the President to allow AHS students now stuck in Europe for 30 days how you’ve got the better plan. With all the cancellations across the nation and the world of much bigger events, you still want to pick on the OHSAA Bottom line, you are criticizing something that quite frankly at the end of the day you knew very little about the process and decision making. But I get it, that’s what you do best.
And I said volunteer to help events you are so quick to criticize, I’ll be looking for help tomorrow at 4:30 since I’ve cut staff to help save money.
