  • Note Sunday we switch to Daylight Savings Time, so there is only 10 hours from the end of the mock search until the start of Sunday's class. We will discuss with students whether to move schedule to 10:00-18:00.

Both the trainers and the students are members of various emergency organizations. Either may be called away to respond to an emergency. For instance, during the 2010 course we were called to an avalanche. If such a situation arises we may suspend portions of this training and reschedule them.
