Good evening, here is the news:
Training Hours Due—Please have those in to me by 5:00pm
Friday. Even if I actually saw you at the Haunt Drill for example,
you need t tell me about it. Also, If you have completed all five of your
NIMS courses, that's good for two CE's.
Team Meeting—Thursday, 10 November, 6:00pm.
We'll try to end promptly at 7. At our Rally Point, the gazebo just west
of the Recreation Center on New Salem, East of Camino Ruiz (just past Fire
Station 38). Since we did not have a meeting in October, we did not get
to discuss the blackout. Please come prepared to talk about how you
reacted; what you did, what you did not do, what worked, what did not.
It's been said many times that this was a giant drill ready-made. I
agree. Let's make the most of it. The survey results are in for the
Haunt Drill, and the After Action Report has been filed, I will share those
results. Anyone who attended the drill is also welcome to share their
thoughts and experiences. Since I spent all of my time outside trying
desperately to look important, I really don't have the best perspective, so
I'll be looking forward to this part. If we have time we will talk about
2012, I want to focus on where we are, where we want to be, and what we can do
in 2012 to get there. Bring a folding chair if standing for an a hour is
not your gig, and personal illumination, it will be dark.
NIMS Classes—I will probably cover this as usual in
the Battalion News, but I wanted to include a special note here to all of you.
If you did not graduate in the last Academy (you guys get more time) and you
don't have these classes done by 31 December 2011, you will be suspended at
best. No, I'm not kidding. I really believe in the value of these
classes, but I don't want to lose a single member because of some technical
issue or otherwise. So, if you are struggling to get these done, please
let me know what your issues are. I have fair technical expertise, and
may be able to help.
All for this week, questions, comments, ISSUES WITH NIMS
CLASSES, you know how to find me.
-Steve
