It's bad enough that I'm having to scramble to put together these ESG profiles. Now I've got another problem.
The nominations I'm getting so far are mostly connected to Arlington High somehow. Connor Witty — Arlington student. Amy Weinberg — Arlington student. Now Richie Kinnear — Arlington student.
To be more specific, people, I need nominations from ALL OVER Dutchess and Ulster counties, not merely from Arlington High. Still, at this point I'll take what I can get.

Profile nominees trickling in
I realize some ESG tryouts aren't over yet — but I'm counting on you to help me fill up these 30 spots for our ESG profiles.
Connor Witty — a tennis player who is a student at Arlington High — is going to be our first profile subject on June 24.
Kara Tancredi, Beacon High basketball star, will be next.
Who will follow? You tell me.

2008 ESGs are coming
The 2008 Empire State Games run from July 23-27 in Binghamton. We'll have a lot of local people participating.
As has become something of a tradition here at the Journal, we will publish 30 profiles of local ESG athletes — one a day — for the 30 days leading up to Opening Ceremonies.
Here's the catch. I'm no math wizard, but I was able to figure out using a giant-sized calendar that in order to make these profiles work, I need to start publishing them on June 24. ESG rosters won't be released until probably July 7.
Do you see my dilemma here? We need about half of the profile subjects to come to us by word of mouth. So open your mouth and tell me who we should profile. Once the rosters are made public, I won't have a problem, but right now I do have a problem and you have to help me solve it.
You have to.
