The Large Animal Ice Rescue (LAIR) class has finally been put on the 2015 calendar. Please see the attached flyer. As this class is expected to fill rapidly, if it closes and you would like to host a class in your area for 2015 please let me know so we can also get it on the calendar. Rebecca Gimenez will be attending this class even though we are not officially planning a summit meeting. So it's going to be worth it to show up just to see if we can get Rebecca in the ice! :-) Please feel free to share or forward to anyone that may be interested in attending or hosting in their area. The flyer will be posted on the website by the end of the week. Also be sure to forward to first responders in your area for future classes. www.eerular.org
