Seminar Location Thread

[BC79er_OLDDELETE]

We did this last year and no one seemed to have an issue with it. More importantly, I'm doing this as the FH.Com Senior Contributing Editor not as a grant guy, so this thread is open to any and all links for workshop schedule links that anyone knows of for any company/person teaching. Kurt and I don't own these forums (nor have we ever thought that) so no one should put anything in here other than a list of locations. Any education is better than none so put them all down whether they cost anything or not.

I tried to link to the schedule pages so it's easy to check for updates. If anyone finds more schedules then post them up.

Happy granting - Brian

Its gonna be busy ( I have over 20 scheudled already) and I only have few slots left for anyone wanting to host one. Off to a good start though on Tuesday I kick it off in Philly. Its never to late to learn something new folks.

Kurt will be coming to Valley Center Kansas on December 5th and 6th for a grant seminar for all public safety. I hosted him last March and already one of the attendees has received an award for 2008. This department had not received an award from AFG. If you have received a DJ and am thinking of attending a grant class, sign up. These classes help. I have been writing grants for 13 years and I learn something new everytime I attend one. If you sign up by November 5th the cost is $299.00 It is worth the cost. Valley Center Kansas is just north of Wichita.

We will be hosting Kurt in Eagle, Wisconsin (Waukesha County - Milwaukee Metro area) on February 21 and 22, 2009. Im anticipating a high demand for this workshop.

If anyone is interested in pre-registering, let me know on here via PM or my email jheim (at) eaglefiredepartment.com

Alum Bank, PA will need to be added to this list. We will also be hosting Kurt Bradley once again December 13, 14. He is a sucker for these winter seminars. I scheduled him on these dates hoping the snow will stick around for Christmas!!! We are located in the south central part of PA. If anyone has any interests, please drop me an email or a private message.

Way to go Brian. I have been trying to get one there for awhile and it is tough. Departments are really scattered across the countryside let me tell you. JAnuary, who due you better ahave a snow cat rented and an great set of extreme set of UnderArmor.

It's part if the MN-IA-NE-SD run so I'll be in the 4WD SUV rental for sure. Might have to make that a Hummer run for the fun.

Not a good sign.....no blizzard to the Northeast this time, but you brought the cold front....50's at night.....60's during the day. Well, it's better than 90 with high humidity.

What part of SD are you looking at? I am in the SE corner and am very interested in attending.

[BC79er_OLDDELETE]

I think we're looking at having two, possibly Pierre and Sioux Falls to cover the most ground. It's in the same week I'll be hitting MN, IA, and NE so too bad I don't get frequent flier miles for driving the rental all over too.

News Flash for those of you in New England who were asking about it. I just had the Londonderry FD in NH sign up to bring me in to deliver a two day seminar there on October 27th -28th. Rather quick notice for this one but it will be my only seminar for NE this year beisdes the one in Rochester NY. I'll post it to my website later today.

Update: Could not get the dates for the venue that they wanted so new dates are being proposed so stay tuned. They are making up their minds and we will post it soon.
