what to do with the old altius poles

Unread postby Livininthepast » Thu Feb 26, 2009 7:19 pm

Now that we need the color markings on the poles for high school, can we adopt altius poles that have the scrathed in marks? Or do we have to throw them away?

Simply send a self-addressed stamped envelope with the list of Altius stickers including serial numbers and engravings to:

Altius Poles
P.O. Box 1168
Jacksonville, TX 75766

They will mail them to you free of charge.

Thank you for making this post, Altius poles are very big in WA and word needs to get out that this needs to be done.

If I officiate the state meet this year, and I am the official checking poles, I really hate to disqualify a perfectly good pole, but I have to apply the rule fairly.

Just to clarify, the official word from Altius is they want serial number and all of the engravings on the pole. AVC Vault is a dealer for them, so they probably trust him more that he is asking for the right labels.
