The Central Region of the WC is looking for a judge. The Central Region covers Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri, and Arkansas. It will take most of a full week commitment.
If you are interested please contact Ferrell Bussing at sunnysideloft@pldi.net for the details. Ferrell is the RD and I am his driver so the lucky guy who takes on the worthwhile task will have us both to entertain you(LOL).

A note from Ferrell Bussing:
MOST OF YOU DON'T KNOW ME, SO I NEED TO INTRODUCE MYSELF. MY NAME IS FERRELL BUSSING AND I AM THE CENTRAL REGION RD. MY GOOD FRIEND, NICK SIDERS SAYS SOMEONE ON THIS SITE MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN JUDGING OUR REGIONAL THIS YEAR. IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED, IT WOULD TAKE ABOUT A WEEK. I AM SORRY IT TAKES SO LONG, BUT IT IS A FOUR STATE AREA, THAT INCLUDES OKLAHOMA, ARKANSAS, MISSOURI AND KANSAS. THERE JUST AREN'T MANY ACTIVE COMPETITORS IN THE CENTER OF THE COUNTRY AND WE CAN PUT UP THIRTY KITS AND ARE ALWAYS PUSHING FOR FORTY-FIVE KITS. WHEN WE FIRST PUT THIS REGION TOGETHER, WE HAD FORTY-FIVE KITS EASY, BUT AFTER YEARS OF ONLY FIVE OR SO GUYS EVER COMING OUT ON TOP, YOU TEND TO LOOSE SOME OF THE MARGINAL COMPETITORS.
I ALSO WISH I COULD SAY THAT ALL THIRTY PLUS KITS WILL BE VERY COMPETITIVE, BUT THAT JUST ISN'T THE CASE. HOWEVER, I GO AROUND ON ALL THE REGIONAL HERE AND I ALWAYS SEE SOME GOOD PIGEONS. IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED, LET ME ADD THAT WE TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF OUR JUDGES AND IF ANYONE HAS A COMPLAINT ABOUT OR TO THE JUDGE, I WILL BE THERE TO SET THEM STRAIGHT. WE HAVE NEVER HAD A REAL PROBLEM FLYING PIGEONS IN THIS AREA. THESE GUYS ARE VERY FRIENDLY AND ENJOY PEOPLE COMING BY TO LOOK AT THEIR BIRDS.
EVERY TIME WE GO INTO THE YARD OF SOMEONE WHO IS A FIRST TIME FLYER, WE MAKE IT A POINT TO MAKE SURE WE LEAVE THAT YARD AS FRIENDS OF THE GUY WHO FLEW HIS BIRDS FOR US. THAT DOESN'T MEAN WE WANT SOMEONE TO JUDGE HIS PIGEONS LENIENTLY, IT MEANS THAT WE ARE SUPPORTIVE AND TRY TO HELP ANY NEW PEOPLE ANY WAY WE CAN. I FEEL THAT SHOULD BE PARAMOUNT IN ANY REGION.
WE'VE HAD SOME GOOD JUDGES HERE, AND I WOULD HOPE THAT THEY WOULD HAVE SOMETHING GOOD TO SAY ABOUT THEIR EXPERIENCE JUDGING IN THIS REGION. THERE IS SOME BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY HERE AND WE WILL GO THROUGH MOST OF IT. WE HAVE HILL BILLIES AND CITY SLICKERS THAT FLY IN THIS REGION AND MOST EVERYONE OF THEM IS A FRIEND OF MINE.
MY LAST TRIP AROUND THE REGION, NICK WENT WITH ME. IF HE CHOOSES TO GO AGAIN, THEN YOU WILL HAVE A TWO MAN ESCORT.
WE NORMALLY FLY THIS REGION IN THE FIRST WEEK OF MAY. WE HAVE MOVED IT A WEEK BACK OR FORWARD IN THE PAST TO ACCOMMODATE THE SCHEDULE OF SOMEONE WHO WAS COMING OUT HERE TO JUDGE.
IN THE PAST WE HAVE HAD JUAN NAVARRO, TIM DECKER, JON FARR, CARL BRAKER, DON SUTTON, DANNY COURTNEY, TROY COPELAND, JOE RINGLER, JOE MARLETT, GUIL RAND, EVEN ELDON CHENEY, WHEN HE DIDN'T COMPETE IN THE FLY, AS HE LIVES IN OUR REGION. THERE ARE OTHERS, THAT I HAVE FORGOTTEN TO MENTION AND OTHERS I CAN'T REMEMBER DUE TO OLD AGE, BUT YOU GET THE PICTURE. AND OF COURSE, I AM WRITING TO YOU ALL BECAUSE, WE WOULD LOVE TO ADD ANYONE OF YOU TO THE LIST OF THOSE WHO HAVE STOOD UNDER OUR KITS AND SHARED THE FLY WITH US.
