Registration opens on June 4th at Noon. Register early by clicking the "Register Here" box. There is no limit on attendance.
This is the "second edition" of this class, the first being held September 7th last year. Since then several PNWR members have expressed an interest in attending the class since they missed the last one or are new members and would like to be more involved with our tours. This class will cover all aspects of how to effectively become a Group Lead or Sweep car, including how to effectively keep your group organized, considerations on how to keep your group together during the drive, effective radio communications within the group and between the lead and sweep cars, how to handle emergencies, etc. This is REQUIRED TRAINING for anyone who wants to be a group lead or sweep on our driving tours. Current group leads and sweeps are also invited if you want a refresher course, especially for sweepers who want to become a group lead.
