[ChainPoint] Chainsaw Applications Workshops

[ChainPoint Connections]

Hi ChainPoints!

I hope you all are having a Fantastic New Year 2012 !

Just a couple things regarding some new developments with Forest Applications...

We are pleased to announce a very special relationship for the future. Forest Applications Training, Inc. and Martha Berry College will be collaborating to bring you some exciting new chainsaw applications training opportunities.

Martha Berry College believes in a hands on approach to education as I do. They manage approximately 27,000 acres consisting of every aspect of agriculture and land use. It's a perfect fit for Forest Applications Training Programs and we are ready to kick off our first workshops at their River Farm property.


February

The first session will be great for those of you who have attended our one day workshops previously. This two day session, scheduled for February 16-17, 2012 will pick up with a review of hands on felling and then spend a lot of hands on time with Storm Sawing. Martha Berry College's River Farm was hit by a tornado just before Christmas 2011 and there are plenty of great examples to work with. Lots of advanced hands on...

To Be Covered:
New PPE developments
Sharpening
Hands on Felling
Hands on Bucking, Limbing

If you have any questions contact us.


Lunch will be provided daily but all other travel expenses are participants responsibility.**

Cost $425.00 per person



---------------------------------
March

The second workshop will be held for three days March 6-8, 2012 in the same location at Martha Berry College. This workshop will be a very comprehensive three days but will be suitable for any chainsaw experience level. When you leave this workshop you will have a very solid basis in Storm Sawing that you can pass along to others. A great workshop for anyone who picks up a chainsaw but especially for municipal and township work supervisors....

To Be Covered:
PPE Requirements
Chainsaw Reduced Down Time
Sharpening
Reactive Forces
Planning of Hazard Felling
Planning for Storm Sawing
Hands on Practical Applications

Lunch will be provided daily but all other travel expenses are participants responsibility.**

Cost $550.00


--------------------------------

**The workshops will begin on the Martha Berry College Campus and the field work will be located on the River Farm just north of Rome, GA. There are plenty of routes to Rome and room accommodations are all very close and reasonable. We will supply you with information as you enroll. Because of the limited space/openings for these workshops you must prepay 10 days prior to the starting date. Credit cards can be processed for payment of these workshops.

To register contact us by phone or by eMail to info at ForestApps.com


If you are unable to make it to one of these workshops, we are planning a schedule now for later in 2012. Please send us a message to let us know your intensions and we will keep you informed of future workshops.

We are so excited about this new relationship with Martha Berry College and we know it is going to be a sought after training center for chainsaw operators in the future. Come and be part of our initial workshops, you will be very pleased with the experience!

Good Sawing,
