avy class?? just a thought

[prayinforsnow]

Its just a thought but a lot of other places are having avy classes in minnesota and in Iowa etc. I personally have never gotten to the mountains, but plan on doing so in the near future if not this year then next year for sure, (graduate college in may and money's kinda tight)and would like to take a class before I go, but my thinking is this... If there are enough people who would be interested in coming to sioux falls I would be very interested in trying to get a class set up. from the looks of it we would need approximately 25-35 people who would be interested in coming to sioux falls for the class. Our local club meets on thursday night and I think that I will mention something at the meeting if anyone else is interested. So.... any thoughts??

i'd be interested if it was on a weekend. i couldn't make it to the mn one cause of the 3 hour drive. s falls is much closer & easier. i may be able to get a few other peeps interested as well...

Last fall, at the SDSA convention (in Aberdeen) there was a seminar.
It was great! Needed to be promoted better though.

Anyway, I wouldn't doubt that they will do that again in Nov at the convention in Huron.

I'll certainly post when it gets closer if they do have it again.
I can't believe they wouldn't since everyone who attended was very impressed.

As long as I don't have class I would be in a friday night or a weekend would work best for me i'm also in college but I would be in if you can get it for the right time i'm in mankato so like I said the weekend would be the best

I am originally from the Sioux Falls area and if you up a flyer at the local bike shops (motoplex, interlakes, jaycox) and such you could easily get that many people. Hell I bet one of the shops (namely motoplex would like to sponosor it or would find people to help sponsor it. Let us updated I would love to go.

Damnit I think I got a league pool tournament that day. Not sure if I'll be playing anyways though, might not have enough playing time in.

Shoot! My wife already has me booked to be out of town that day. Really want to get to an Avy class. She had me booked during the convention too! She must have some kind of intuition!

will they have any snow to ride in for that poker run? sounds like a good day though, avalanche safety class and poker run. I would be interested if anyone from the area could let us know how the snow is

 

[Mafesto]

Heck,
I would rather do the poker run in a vehicle anyway.
I'd rather not drink & ride!

You can see the flyer for the poker run here.

Isn't looking good for snow, chance of some monday but then it's supposed to warm up again. Going to have the run regardless of weather.

No snow right now....tomarrow may change things.

 

[shortstop20]

So can I buy a ticket when I get there right before the event starts or do I need to buy one in advance?

I would rather ride than drink! The only thing my sled has done this year besides a few rides around home and a trip out west is depreciate and collect dust lol

 

[jsledder]

There are 100 tickets printed, you should be able to get them up until go time. If you want to be sure and have a ticket, let me know and I can get you one.
