Birds of a Feather

First Responders BoF

First Responders BoF is in the process of forming, and we are looking for law enforcement, fire, EMT and other first responders who want to camp as a group for fun and fellowship. The first organizational meeting will be held at Escapade in Essex Junction, Vermont (see page 37).

For information, contact Donald Fredericks at: sq320ret@yahoo.com or 707-953-4346.

Geocache: The Geocachers BoF provides a link enabling members to be in touch with other SKP geocachers. It provides an opportunity to share geo- caching information, learn from others and discover if other SKP geocachers are nearby. The BoF hosts an annual multi-day rally in the Quartzsite, AZ, area, in late January of each year, which features morning seminars and afternoon caching outings. All communication is electronic via a Yahoo! group, Facebook or e-mail. There are no dues or fees. To join, contact Sue Pace at skpgeocacheBoF@gmail.com. Please include your e-mail address, name(s), SKP #, phone # and, if you have one, your geocaching handle.

Full-time Graduating Class: This is an informal group with no newsletter or officers. All correspondence for this group is via the Escapees Discussion Forum. You can join your graduating class simply by going online to the forum, www.rvnetwork.com , select the topic “Graduating to Full-Time” and select the year of your class. Genealogy: AKA SKP Genies. This group is all about friendship and family history. Our quarterly newsletter has BoF news and educational articles on researching techniques and sources. SKP Genies Magic (a rally and research trip hybrid) is held annually. Time-sensitive information and advice are shared via a Yahoo! group. Contact Albert Taylor at skpgenies@gmail.com or SKP Genealogy BoF, 142 Rainbow Dr., #4228, Livingston, TX 77399-1042.
