Behind the scenes at this year's PETS I will be attending the first sessions of our new board, already beginning the planning for my PETS, 2012, before this one has even been completed.
I starts Thursday with a tour of our new facility.  We have been at the same resort for nine years, since Multi District PETS came into being.  We have outgrown the faciloity and have been forced to limit attendance, excluding, or not encouraging spouses, etc. that we think are important.  Our district is the only one the pays for spoused to attend and the others have not been encourage due to lack of space.  Since my class will be the first at the new facility it will be up to us to work out as many wrinkles as we can for the next class.
On Friday at 4:00 PM we have our first planning meeting for the 2012 PETS.  This past year we met twice as a group on our own and discussed the upcoming year, we also sat in on all the 2011 PETS board meetings just to observe and learn.  There are five of those meetings each year.
Saturday morning at 9:00 AM our board meets in its second session.  This one lasts the entire morning.
Saturday afternoon, after PETS is adjourned, we have a wrap up meeting including this year's board an ours.  We have one year to make next year's PETS better, the goal of every board.
I look forward to updating this blog on both PETS and the progress of our new board, the new facility, etc. once this is over.  For now it is just preparing for this next week.
Until next time.
