2020 Spring SAR Basics/Scheduling
From PCSAR
Originally planned for 2019 Fall but postponed due to conflict with LASARA course.
Using SAR Fundamentals/Scheduling criteria.
- Jan 31-Feb 2 : possible weekend 1
- Feb 7-9 : preferred: weekend 1
- Feb 14-16 : discounted: Family Day long weekend
- Feb 21-23 : possible weekend 2
- Feb 28-Mar 1 : Alberta Parks prefer early March, late February; preferred: weekend 2
- Mar 6-8 : Daylight savings starts March 8; Saturday sunset 18:28; discounted: Full Moon March 9
- Mar 13-15 : discounted: Saturday sunset 19:39
Suggestion was given to consider a Thursday/Friday course based on expectation that a large number of students would be coming from Alberta Parks and Castle Mountain Resort and they can more easily get time off on those days, rather than on the weekend.
This would actually include Wednesday evenings:
- Eve 1: Wed 18:30-22:00
- Day 2: Thu 09:00-17:00
- Day 3: Fri 09:00-17:00
- Eve 4: Wed 18:30-22:00
- Day 5: Thu 09:00-17:00
- Eve 5: Thu 18:30-22:00
- Day 6: Fri 09:00-10:00
