OLD BUSINESS: David Clark and Dave Crawford gave a report on their attendance at the Northwest Fire & Rescue Expo on May 18 and 19. The new power point presentation with sound as well as the 3-fold flyers went well. Attendance at our booth was slow during the day but picked-up as soon as the on-site training classes were over.
NEW BUSINESS: Discussion was held concerning hosting 'satellite classes'. It was deemed impractical at this time, due to time and effort required by the Association, as well as our instructor resources.
