Fellow Members:
Letter from Tammy Orr
It is with mixed emotions that I write this letter as your outgoing President. The last two years have flown by, and I'd like to think that as a team, this Board has accomplished quite a lot. I would like to thank all Board members for their continued hard work and dedication.
Hopefully one of our biggest feats is the new and improved website. We will strive to keep the site updated and will continue to grow it into a useful and informative tool. We welcome your comments and suggestions throughout this process.
I'm excited to announce that Crime Scene School is Back!! Save the dates: August 31-September 4. In addition to the Basic training, the Board is in the final planning stages for a three-day Advanced school. This course will be offered to those members who have completed Basic, and who wish to have more in-depth training in the areas of shooting reconstruction, chemical processing, and footwear/tire tracks. (Class sizes are limited; watch for updates here as well as printed materials soon.)
