I got to go to one when I was a volunteer and it was great. Fortunately for our members we pay for lodging and a daily food allotment and reimburse for fuel for any training. That is good it is nearby you this time around since it is out of pocket. I plan on pushing the opportunity to attend the next one to all. Thanks, you have a good week also.

Greetings from the East Coast to you as well! :)

Thanks this is pretty cool

well I am from Oklahoma, but I am currently in Maryland ,so hello from the East Coast

Things are going good up here. We got a little rain the other day, which was good to keep the fire danger down a bit. We have three paid staff here, Our Chief, myself and an administrative assistant/safety officer. Volunteers make up the majority of our agency. I have been attempting to get our members to attend the OVFA conferences and finally got a couple to go to the last one. They had a great time and good classes, I am sure more will attend now.

thank u! But ur in OR! I'd rather be there! lol

It's a fun event. We raise money throughout San Diego County for the Burn Institute, with most of the proceeds going toward the Camp Beyond the Scars for children that have been burned. We also have the opportunity to volunatrily staff the camp, which is always a blast. It's a fun thing...your area should give it a try. :)
