SouthBay OEC - Fall 2020 - Indication of Interest

Candidates and Patrollers w/Prospective Candidates -

It's approaching time to open registration for the SouthBay OEC class.  Clearly, there are a number of variables at play here, including: the disease progression, government and other oversight body guidance, the format & protocols under which we'd hold the class, and more, which will all bear on the class itself as well as both candidate & patroller participation. .

While we wait for more data, guidance, and decisions on these fronts, the first question is: If we do the class, would we have candidates and if so, how many?

And so a request - If you are a candidate, or if you are a patroller or patrol director who has candidates, please fill in your candidate name & information on the GoogleSheet below to indicate that you *may* be interested in the class.  Please do so by June 30 2020.

Note: As all of us, your decision to attend the class will be made once we have established, and you have reviewed, the class format, protocols, and other safety measures, and you feel comfortable with them.  At this point, we're only looking for your indication of interest in the class, to get a picture of  the numbers we're dealing with.  More information, and the actual event registration to follow soon.
