PostSubject: RECOVERY 101   Wed Jul 02, 2008 2:13 am

We'd like to set up a saturday (preferably the saturday of a wheeling weekend) where we can put off
wheeling for a couple hours and have a RECOVERY 101 CLASS. There are many people that may want
to learn how to use a high lift, tow rope w/shackles, winch, tree-saver, etc. How to position these things.
Even if it's a refresher for some or a no-brainer for others. I think it'd be a fun way for anyone that is
uncomfortable in their knowledge (me included) of some of these things. I couldn't work a winch if you
paid me!!!

Also, it'll be fun to get a couple of our guys stuck on purpose so we can rescue them!

I think it's imperative that we know these things and use that knowledge in a safe manner. pirat


In the future, I'd like to have a SAFETY ON THE TRAILS/PROPER SPOTTING class. Not that I believe anyone
to be neglectful or unknowing....just because I know I, myself, am intimidated with the idea of spotting. I have
not really ever had a chance to. I know the basics, but I could learn more. Kinda like a refresher course!

I DO need 2-3 people to step up as EDUCATORS for these type of events. PM me or Chris if interested.

Thank you! We'll let you know as soon as we get this going. I'd like to take a vote on what
weekend would be best for the bigger outcome. Between CC and here, I hope to see a lot of
people come out for it...then some wheelin'!!!

MAFWDA does this also. It maybe a good idea to go to one of theirs first or have them lead ours.
