Please take a look at the ARE presentation in the media gallery.

We hope to welcome some patrollers from some yet-to-be-affiliated countries along with specific experts offering great information and techniques.

Marie and her 2009 Organizing Committee are about ready to open registration.

Perhaps there will be early registration advantages to past Congress attendees.

The Congress costs will expressed and paid in local currency.

Early registration will help you reserve airline tickets using points (not included in registration). Transportation from airport will be included, will have scheduled busses and specific alternate arrangements may be made, if we are advised early.

Presentation inputs from Members are encouraged and we will attempt to schedule as many as possible. Please make sure your SPO is participating in ALL of our current survey projects; Tools & Competencies, Injuries to Patrollers, Safety Educational Programs and Medical Committee.

Come back and check the site mid March.

Bruce Lochhead,
President, for the FIPS Committee.
