Hello from King Co. WA - Seattle area.  
 
I am with Northwest Horseback Search & Rescue, associated with King Co  SAR 
which is hosting the 2006 state SAR conference May 19-21 in  Enumclaw WA.  
 
So far the instructor lineup has been heavy for K9 training but we haven't  
lined up anything related to mounted SAR.  We've had a couple of offers  from 
other WA counties to assist in holding horse classes, however I would like  to 
see what this group can suggest.  
 
At our '99 state conference we held a packing demonstration and a horse  
safety demo, but it was largely attended by kids and it really didn't seem to  
advance anyone's skills or knowledge. 
 
I'd really like to see a MSAR class bring new ideas to our members rather  
than go within our unit and end up with a demonstration of what we already  
know/teach/train. 
 
Any suggestions from folks who've done successful presentations at SAR  
conferences?  
 
Barbara Sly, Operations Lead, VP Northwest Horseback  SAR
