For the members who attend the Expo along with their respective companies/departments, are there guidelines in regard to attending classes? How many they must attend, etc?
We send mostly just the chiefs, capts and LT's to the expo. But if some of them cant go because of prior commitments, we'll send members who are in the company that show interest in furthering(sp?) their knowledge.
Money is tight here, so we cant send everyone. :twisted:
Here we go again. Do we HAVE to air our laundry out here where EVERYBODY can read it. The public does NOT need to know who goes and who gets what for what. P L E A S E change or delete your posting about funds and how they are spent.
1075, you WISH you could go? Who said ya can't?
