Amy,

You have to take Level 1 to get oriented and get started. Gotta start somewhere, and we all need the common language and basic rescue training in Level 1. I promise you will love it - it's a really fun and useful class.

Apply for the scholarship and plan to come. You won't regret it.

It is essentially all field work every day, with no check-offs in the evenings and no (that's right no) PowerPoint whatsoever! That alone makes it the best course ever offered by the NCRC! :-)

For more information on the TOFE class, contact Tim White, Rebecca Segrest, Scott Stepenuck, or yours truly.

I took TOFE in 2010 and it is a GREAT class.
I'm glad NCRC decided to make it a regularly offered course. :clap:

Yar that makes sense. And I have no doubt it will be a fun and informative class =)

I suppose I'll be there :big grin:

I'm already signed up for the instructor pool and with luck Steve'll give me Level II again.

Mentone is a great site and it really helps that we've now been there enough to be thoroughly familiar with the caves and cliffs available.

I'll be there, man.

I am signed up for the instructor pool and will teach with whichever level needs me.

Can't wait for Mentone III :banana_yay:

Any idea who is the chief instructor for level 1 and for level 2? I signed up for the instructor pool. I'll also bring lots of motrin and bandaids.

I will bring my "backup gear cache" as well. Within reason. Still have that Jeep Compass, I can only cram so much fun into it.

Thanks for the reminder! I got distracted and haven't signed up online yet, but I plan to be there. It seems the sign-up process starts earlier and earlier each year.

What? You haven't signed up for the 2014 seminar yet? You're missing the boat. :-)
