Good Afternoon everyone! The Kansas City Large Animal Ice Rescue class is almost full and I noticed we don't have very many TLAER folks signed up that may have been interested in coming. I'm exploring a second class to be held at K-State in February and I also have heard from Minnesota about taking one up there. Nothing on the calendar yet. But I wanted to give a heads up to this group the KC class is anticipated to close soon if you wanted to get in on it. Have a great Thanksgiving!
