In order to provide a better service for everyone, we have developed a plan for hosting a weekly topic of importance to help assist you in your own preparedness plans. We are not the final authority on what your plan should be, but simply want to present information to you for you to develop your own plan, and we strongly encourage you to do so.
Along with these weekly classes and discussions we are encouraging anyone that may be felt led to teach a class, to please do so. We are not preparedness experts and we firmly believe that each one of our members has a skill or knowledge to share with the rest of us. So, please review our current schedule and our list of other suggested classes. We are very grateful for anyone that is interested in helping us present information to the group. If you feel led to teach a class that is on the suggested class list, you schedule the class when it fits you. The administrators will provide support and assist in anyway you would like.
I am going to add a page to our website that will be titled Print Your Own Binder. The classes are set up to discuss vital components to ones sustainability through a crisis. While this will not be a completely comprehensive survival binder, our wish is that it will give the people a basis of information and a basis to start their own research, in order to develop ones personal binder designed to suit their particular needs.
I hope that you find this information helpful and I hope that you feel compelled to lead a class on a topic of your choosing. Thank you, to all of you for making this group great!
