****ATTENTION ALL ARTCC's*****

Official Statement from the office of VATUSA5:

Nov 1st, 2018

On Monday October 29th, 2018 a broadcast email was sent out to VATUSA controllers referencing a event taking place for ZNY on 11/2 and 11/3. This message was sent out without consultation of VATUSA5, and thus created some confusion among the facilities.

The purpose of this message was to communicate the importance of a Division wide event taking place on Saturday Nov 3rd, TRANSON: Live from Philadelphia.https://forums.vatusa.net/index.php?topic=8196.0 (https://forums.vatusa.net/index.php?topic=8196.0)
ZNY Staff had reached out to VATUSA in order to help promote such a huge event to ensure adequate ATC coverage for everyone participating.

Policies and procedures are currently being developing to ensure proper protocols will be followed for any future broadcast messages specifically related to events. Event communication and promotion will to continue to follow normal protocols until new ones are established. Thank you all for your continued hard work and dedication to the VATUSA events.
