We are looking for volunteer patrollers from the region and division who might like to help out with logistics and stations.

 

Late breaking news!  We have a sponsor (can’t tell you who yet) and we need specific information from you (you will have to follow the link for a hint at what it may be!).

https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/QQ56V76

So this is a quick 3 question survey, and it will take less than one minute to fill out, but if you are coming and you don’t fill it out, you may not get one of the special items.  Please fill this out by Monday the 20th.  Next week we will have a proper registration form with more information.  If you know that you are not coming to the AMN, there is no need to answer the survey (we will miss you!)

If you want to get a head start on the registering process, you will need to register also on the NSP site for the following courses (click the link to go straight to the registration page):
