About Me:
I'm 34 years old, and I live in Moab, Utah. I am currently a probie firefighter with the Moab Valley Fire Department, altghough I began my fire career back in 1996 with the San Juan Bautista Tri County Fire Department and CDF. I am dad to the world's two greatest kids. I grew up wanting to follow my father into the California Highway Patrol, but there's just something about riding on a big shiny red fire engine and the adrenaline rush that comes with the job...

    Hey Jared, I'm proud of your accomplishment after completing your training and getting successfully voted in to the Moab FD. Good stuff brother and a wonderful start for your career. I am planning on being in your area this coming June 2010 and would like to schedule a class for your department when I'm in town. I will be in touch with you prior to the trip with more specifics as far as dates. I also need to send you some subject matter to help you department decide if they are interested in the training. I've made several thousand dollars in the past but for you my friend, my charge is a cup of fire station coffee... maybe a tee shirt... lol

    Talk to you soon,

    Will be in Moab sometime during the first couple of weeks in June. Maybe we can finally get together and put on some training. We just have to discuss topics and I may need a ride from the Big Bend Campground, assuming that it will be a night training class? I would have to email you the class handouts ahead of time for you to make copies prior to the class. Stay in touch through my email, mschlags@gmail.com Take care, Mike
