VIR Flagging Course

[Chris]

I just wanted to start a new thread away from the huge VIR one for those taking the flagging course. There are several new people taking this and I'm really excited you folks want to come check out the track!

Here is the list:

Andy
Justin
Jeff M.
Nick
Alison
Drew Rodgers
Brent Ballew
Carlie Snyder (possible)
SS (derek I think? sorry I'm bad with names) (possible)

NASA would like to know who can do some of the training Friday evening at 7:30. This is how they will be able to get more people into the flagging course.

Remember, just bring some money to help pay for gas if you ride with someone, money for dinner friday night and sunday night. Everything else is taken care of.

I'll add a list of highly recommended items when I get home

List:

-sleeping bag and pillow
**lots and lots of layers of clothes** (honestly bring a separate backpack with extra shirts, pants, gloves, hats, etc. you can't have enough because you'll be outside all day and this event tends to be VERY cold!)
-comfortable shoes (waterproof is nice or a second pair)
-rain gear (jacket and pants if possible)
-camera
-snacks and water
-sunglasses
-some spending money
-personal items
-did I mention warm clothes?

**also- please find some outer jacket that is white or tan or grey... you cannot wear yellow or red, and black if possible**


Please keep this thread on topic and let me know who can do the training at 7:30 Friday. Remember, one group will leave JMU around noon on Friday, so rides are available.
