Are the Quarterly Trainings still a thing?

[crawler dude12]

I can do Friday after school for me. And Saturday almost any Saturday... the Saturday of the 27th is my birthday and can convince my parents to let me go wheeling

Just had some plans change, so I can be there for something the weekend of the 27th, and could likely bring a friend along. Tying it in with the NLPD stuff seems like a great idea to me.

Thanks for the input, guys, good to know there's folks still interested in these events because I really enjoyed the couple I've been to. You guys that originally planned the QTDs, feel free to take the reigns here anytime if you want, I'm not intending to step on any toes.

I'll need teachers/presenters too to go with all the teachees. Friday afternoon/evening and Sunday morning are available (Saturday will be NPLD projects). I'll do a Recovery Gear 101 which will fill about half an hour whenever. Jinxspot, you want a chunk of time Sunday morning? Anybody else who wants to present a topic, feel free to speak up. It could be a class format on anything tangetially related to wheeling, it could be a detailed trip report, it could be a round table style discussion of something that interests you, whatever. Early Sunday afternoon we'll do a semi-guided trail run or two, depending on who's left hanging around.

Yep Sunday would be good with me.

I can cover either or both of these topics:

1. instructor to teach basics/intro to modifying your vehicle
   
2. instructor to teach basic rock crawling/spotting techniques

 

[Kevin B.]

I'll put you down for both, and we'll trim back if we get too many teachers (hah!).

I am sure my wife and I can do camping basics or whatever.

Awesome. Friday evening work for you guys?

 

[crawler dude12]

So is there a set weekend for this?

Looking like the weekend of Sept 26-28.

We're doing this in conjunction with the NPLD service project up AFC, I hope.

Friday night is probably best for me; Saturday would be very difficult due to work.

I once told Steve I was willing to teach a class on locking differentials--I suppose I could make you the same offer.

I'll take it. Lemme make sure I can cram you in Friday night before I hold you to it though.

Is there going to be any wheeling Saturday after the service project?

 

[smartass_kid]

not going to be able to do anything that weekend, folks in town and wife would kill me if I left her with them.

Solution: leave your folks at your house and bring your wife with you.

 

[Kevin B.]

Or leave your wife and bring your folks.

Iffy but possible. You're welcome to do whatever of course, but if past years are any guide, probably not.

If there's enough folks interested, there will definitely be semi-guided wheeling on Sunday.

My only problem with that is it's on Sunday...
