January 2 will be here before you know it. We are only
four months away. Please make plans to attend this year’s upcoming Institute.
We have a little bit different format this year with our registration day being
on Monday instead of Sunday and having classes on Friday morning. This is being
done so that we can stay in the first week of January another year and still
provide a good week of available training.
Please make any agency in your area that you think might
be interested in this training aware of it and promote the Institute for us. As
a past attendee you are our best advertisement. Please go to the class synopsis
and agenda links and check out the outstanding program that our Board of
Directors has put together for you.
I would also like to make you aware of two other
Institute related training opportunities. For the first time ever we are
offering a Mini-Institute October 18 –
20, 2011 in Minnetrista, Minnesota and the 33rd Annual Park Law
Enforcement Association Conference will be March 19 – 23, 2012 at The Summit
Conference Center at Haw River State Park in Browns Summit, NC (14 miles north
of Greensboro). Detailed information about both of these opportunities is
listed under the Additional Training Link on the home page.
I look forward to seeing each and every one of you in
January. Take care and be safe-
Respectfully Yours,
Lt. John R. Byrd Sr., MS (Retired) Executive Director – The Park Ranger Institute
Past and Future Institute Attendees..
