Davis Fire Crew 2010

New Hire Training Instructions

Pay particular attention to highlighted items

The Mendocino NF has asked up to split up into blocks of 45 for the pack test and paperwork, with two hours between each block.  The first three will be on Friday afternoon, then we'll finish up with two blocks on Saturday morning.  Returnees will get first dibs at the time slot of their choice.  Take care of the paperwork and pack test at your chosen time, and you are done until...
EVERYONE has to return to the training center by 1300 (1:00 PM) on Saturday, March 27, for mandatory Civil Rights training and introductions, etc. 
 
And, EVERYONE has to be at the training center on Sunday, March 28, by 7:45 AM for Refresher training for returnees and S-190 for new hires. 
 
Don't be late, or you will be fired!  Seriously, no excuses this year.  We have a big group and there is no need for people who can't be on time.
