Hi Gang, I’m dying to hear how everything went.

I’ve heard that there might be some interest in a first aid course. Feel free to discuss that.

Cheers!!

It was very informative. There were some great discussions. A great deal of positive feedback for Bill and Chris. It would be great to get more hands on and scenarios, however the weather didn't allow.

I picked up some tips for my drivers meetings, how to handle different personality traits on the trail, and reinforced the need for a good attitude while leading.

I think the Denver contingent may not be home yet due to the multitude of road closures from the storm.

It was an incredible weekend. Although I think it was my fourth or fifth weekend training with Bill I continue to learn things. We were gifted with Chris Nelson’s participation co-leading all weekend. Conversations were in-depth and thoughtful, never boring, and mixed with plenty of great war stories.
We did some work in the parking lot hands-on but the weather was not so encouraging for getting out into the field.

No karaoke due to Covid but a few of the guys did manage to get out for dinner.
