Western Region Class of 2005

"Congratulations to our Class of 2005! And once again, a sincere thank-you to all of the instructors, examiners, patients, station managers, and all the others who helped them along the way. Each year the demands on our patrollers and candidates seem to increase, and in turn, our instructors and trainers face more challenges. They all can be very proud of their accomplishments, and should know that their efforts are appreciated. This is one of the most enjoyable parts of the patrol year. It is wonderful to see the culmination of all the training and testing efforts of the candidates." - Tom Gray, Mike Peters and Bonnie Schlank

The Class of 2005 is comprised of brand new Basic, Senior and Certified patrollers; patrollers who have completed a portion of the Senior or Certified requirements; or graduates of any other NSP continuing education course or seminar - sometime during June 2004 - May 2005. If your Patrol's graduates are not yet listed, please send the lists, corrections, additions to Roger Petry. Our Region's new patrollers and those who have continued their education deserve to be recognized.
