Meeting Infomation
We plan for 3 to 4 meetings a year. Our annual winter Counsel meeting is in early January. This meeting tends to be a bit more lengthy covering any need for voting based on our election cycle for members, yearly collaborating goals, updates, training opportunities, training standards, MOU's and any new business.
Our spring and fall meetings also allow everyone to check-in and share information and updates. members will continue to collaborate in burn operations. Lastly, a summer meeting if needed based on current projects.
We have adapted to COVID and most meetings are currently held on Zoom to keep everyone safe. We hope to host at least one meeting during the year. We will continue to enable the zoom option based on causality for everyone.
