Can you check where we are in getting in writing what we're supposed
+
=== Laverine ===
-
to do in getting ARRC numbers?
+
-
 
+
-
Supposedly we need to register meeting and searches with AEMA through
+
-
the ARRC in order to have WCB coverage. However I don't think anyone
+
-
in Pincher SAR has received the details in writing of what exactly we
+
-
should be doing. I believe we've only received directions verbally
+
-
or 2nd hand.
+
-
 
+
-
For instance, what events need to be registered? Can a search be
+
-
registered during or after the event? What are the consequences of
+
-
not registering? When we next have a WCB claim (as we almost did with
+
-
the mock search), getting these details right will be important.
+
-
 
+
-
Ideally we should be receiving a letter from AEMA, the Fire
+
-
Commissioner's Office, or SAR Alberta that lays out all the
+
-
requirements.
+
-
 
+
-
If we know what we must be doing, we can make sure we are
+
-
accomplishing that. We need this information both for the Preplan
+
-
Committee which sets up procedures for Search Managers and also for
+
-
the Training Committee which schedules lots of events. My guess is
+
-
that we may not currently be doing all that we need to.
+
-
 
+
-
I brought this up a few months ago and the board said they were going
+
-
to get the information. I haven't heard anything yet.

As we discussed last month, I'd really appreciate it if you could take
+
=== Russ ===
-
the lead on the communications side of our training committee.
+
-
To do that you'll need to be aware of what training is planned into
 
-
the next few months for Pincher SAR. You'll also need to be talking
 
-
to our neighbours, Crowsnest Pass SAR, Lethbridge SAR (LASARA) and the
 
-
Lethbridge dog team (CSDA), and finding out any training they have
 
-
which is relevant.
 
-
There's a provincial mailing list (SARA Training Coordinators) where
+
=== Dick ===
-
major training opportunities are announced. You'll get those
+
* {{task|Complete paperwork after grant-funded courses}}.
-
announcements automatically through the PCSAR training committee
+
-
mailing list.
+
-
With all the information you've collected, I'm asking you to be the
+
== Smaller tasks ==
-
lead person in getting the word out. If you're comfortable, that
+
Suitable for new committee members
-
means giving the training announcements at the start of each regular
+
* take a particular month's regular training, contact a trainer and arrange for them to present, support the presenter as required
-
meeting (about 5 minutes). That also involves updating our website
+
* facility support (class room set up) for a particular course
-
calendar (wiki) and sending out e-mail to the mailing lists.
+
* snack/lunch/beverage support for a particular course
-
 
+
* registrar for a particular course
-
The basic information on our communications is here:
+
* mock search support - planting clues, being a rabbit or mock witness
-
 
+
* arrange a hike

I'm not sure whether you're comfortable with mailing lists and wikis.
+
-
If you're not, I'll be glad to walk you through them.
