On behalf of Greg, Bob and myself, We'd like to thank our brothers and sister for the opportunity to represent our local at this event. These events are invaluable opportunites, and must be taken full advantage of. We attended workshops concerning funding for ems in todays economy, infectious deiseases, case studies on personell manning and health and safety. The list goes on, and it is long. Please see us at July's meeting, where we will be sharing as much of this information as possible.
As a quick note, I'd like to thank Local 1510 (Miami Beach Firefighters Association) for theire hospitality during this event. They went above and beyond the call to ensure everyone was comfortable.
