Depending on the date I would be happy to help as along as there if no
Ice or snow.

Urb,
Count me in on helping out at the Clubhouse for this event. I think it is a
great idea. We can offer some refreshments and snacks.

We have some tables and folding chairs in the shed if we need them. For the
VE testing session, if we need more room, we can use the desks in the VHF
and HF rooms.

A Tailgate SwapMeet at the Clubhouse site is tentatively scheduled for
Saturday, May 13, 2017.

I think your training class should be held on a separate day so as to not
interfere with the SwapMeet.

We may be able to do it as a substitute for a Tech Saturday?

Anyone else have some thoughts?

GM all,

A group of members have been having an email discussion on topics related to
bring new people into the hobby and training them.

I am putting forth a proposal and would appreciate any comments, positive or
negative.

My proposal is to have a Saturday Technician and/or General test prep
session at the club house to be immediately followed by a VE session while
the material is fresh in your minds. My method has three main features.

1. We don't study incorrect answers.
2. We study only the questions most likely on the test.
3. It's free.

My idea is to do the Technician training and exam in the morning and the
General training and exam in the afternoon. One of the advantages on this
sequence is that when you pass the Technician exam you can take the General
exam, at the same session, with no additional fee.

At this point in time all I would like is an indication of interest, not a
commitment. Please let me know you name, call if you have one, your goal
Technician, General or both and your email address.

I would also like your willingness to help teach the course. Again, only an
interest, not a commitment.

Any additional comments would be appreciate.
