NMBP/Ambassador classes

[Vibrato]

We've got approval from IMBA to do our own class- the online test is pretty simple, but we'll cover it all in class, too.

Sunday the 28th is looking like a maybe go if everyone can make it- still working on an exact time and venue. We would like to have it soon so that you guys and gals can have time to order jerseys and set up packs and such.

We will keep you updated!!

As far as dates, if HJ is there, I'll be there!! Yay! Mielke and I have gotten our online test and registration out of the way. The class is the last step for us.

For those interested in the Ambassador or Mtn Bike Patrol qualifications, visit the IMBA website for more detail. The Ambassadorship requires passing an online test which was very easy, working with the local NMBP chapter, and sending in your green to IMBA. The Mtn Bike Patrol is more extensive requiring CPR certification, first aid and bike repair training, creating a pack with first aid supplies, taking a test, sending in cash to IMBA. Feel like I'm forgetting something, but check the IMBA site for more info on the NMBP.

...I'm not so sure on that. I paid for Ambassador, and I was due to renew my regular IMBA membership. There was no indication that, after paying the Ambassador fee, that my IMBA membership had renewed.

I will have to check into this more closely...
