Safety Chair

First off let me thank everyone for giving me the opportunity to give back to this great organization that has helped me so much.  Secondly thank you to all those who served in this position before me to include Shane for doing all the great things to include getting me into a SWR class a couple years ago.

Now for the business, I am looking to build an instructor database for SWR.  I have the complete ACA list of who all is certified in all the surrounding states but what I need is who is actually CCC members and instructor certified.  If you follow CCC Facebook page, are a certified instructor, and not an actual CCC member then you can also let me know why you are not a part of this great organization and what we need to do to get you to pay some dues! Please feel free to include any instructor certification for other than SWR as I will forward the full list to our Education Chair so we can maintain that roster as well.

For those that did not attend the meeting on Zoom this past weekend my goals for this year are to get our SWR course offerings back on the calendar after Covid shut us down for 2020 and we were not able to offer any.  My plan is to get an instructor course on the calendar for the Spring to build our instructor pool back up, followed by numerous SWR courses for the members during the year.

I will also be updated our Safety page within the month, adding the newer updated information for our members to include many great links for Safety, Rescue, and Medical resources

Please let me know if you have anything you want to see this year added to our safety program or if you have any questions.

Thank you,

William Holman
