To be honest, I’m pushing the training envelope just a bit this year . . . . Mrs. Bill gave me one of “those” looks that she has honed oh so well over the past 46 years of our relationship. Heavy sigh . . . Yet, she followed it with a smile and reminded me to make sure I had my “shooter pants” along – she’s such a little shit!
Anyway, mid morning tomorrow I am off to Kansas City, KS for a three day NRA Training Counselor workshop. The purpose is to train the trainers that train the trainers . . . . does that make sense??
Things to bring – 2ea 3” 3-ring binders, black pens, highlighters and three personal reference letters in sealed envelopes. Sounds like all classroom, no range time – not sure really, they said nothing about bringing a firearm but I’ll have my carry weapon with me so I can always pick up some ammo. The course will be handled at the Cabela’s on the west side of town near the racetrack.
The course is pricy at $500 for the 3-days. Of course that doesn’t include room,food,travel . . . . yep, the old training checkbook is gonna take a hit on this one.
The days are scheduled to begin at 9 and end at 5 – looks like full days. So, provided I’m not completely trashed out at the end of each day I will offer some updates, maybe a photo or two and take you all along on this adventure with me.
A training I shall go . . . .
I would say 'enjoy' the experience, but that much BIS time just hurts... (Butt In Seat)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy! Looking forward to hearing about it.
