What do you guys think? I'm sure the whole console isn't thrilled to hear about long johns, scanners and snow tires but again I could be wrong- Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2001 Report Share Posted December 10, 2001 I haven't looked into how to do the Yahoo group or whatever but it sounds like a good idea if we can allow others here to join if they want to - and spare those list members who don't want to put up with our traffic. Since Kev knows the way..... BTW, I've contacted APCO magazine and got the thumbs up to do an article or three for them on the impact of the games on the area comm centers and that type of thing. I may also try to do a running commentary for the folks back home which might well be posted to the Yahoo group or other. Randy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2001 Report Share Posted December 10, 2001 Not sure how others heard about it, , but I heard about it right here on this list. I applied, waited anxiously for 2+ months, and now I've got my ticket and I'm going! How easy was that?

I wind up using up all this year's vacation (4 weeks) which means I'll have to earn some comp time for APCO and Navigator, but the way I look at it, it's kind of a once in a lifetime opportunity. Where else am I going to get the chance to work behind the scenes at the Olympic Games? It's my chance to do something outside the box and participate in an important event. randall larson/sjfire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I sure couldn't afford to do it w/o using leave time. I'm looking forward to seeing how all you warm climate folks like all the snow and cold you'll experience! Just remember to pack plenty of skin lotion, limp balm and sun block. It will be a " dry " cold, UV rays are closer due to the elevation and don't over do it the first couple of days to acclimate to the higher elevation.

Any and all as far as I'm concerned. I try to collect 'em all. Not all dispatch centers have their own patches (mine doesn't, for example, we wear the regular FD patch), but I'd be pleased to see whatever you can bring!
