The NASSA Implementation Team will periodically publish NASSA Press Releases outlining significant milestones achieved under our NASSA Strategic Implementation Plan. This will include topics such as:
- Announcements of personnel appointments for the NASSA Implementation Team, Regional Directors or various other NASSA Functional Managers supporting our organizational infrastructure.
- Development of significant value-added technical content under the NASSA charter. This could include the piloting of new technology such as performance databases and apps that elevate the Rifle Silhouette Discipline.
- Notices of collaborative agreements with kindred organizations, sponsors, industry vendors, and others where there is a mutual mutual benefit.
All these NASSA Press Releases are intended to keep our NASSA Membership informed and to build trust as we move closer towards a Non-Profit 501(c)(3) Corporate Governance Model.
