[Psml] one hour seminar

Hi, 

 

 Here is my query to my SEO.

 

 I bet you're busy, but is there a 1 hr. USPS presentation of basic boating
skills we could use to lure folks to sign up?

 My idea is to have as many as possible members give a ten minute topic with
power point. Something fast enough to to overwhelm some newbies but not so
fast that a good learner couldn't come away with more than just the hand
outs. This could be an easy way to encourage both members to teach topics
and public to take a one hour seminar or sit in for part of it.

 

 

 Both members of our Bridge and he think this is a good idea. We are looking
into the idea of State Parks and Marinas as staging areas.

 

 I now think that a poster and easel based presentation would work best.
Maybe, four or more members trading topics (none over 10 minutes, some
under) with a VSC option afterwards. Teaching for free with free handouts
might lure a few to us or at least to safer boating. Keeping it very
portable (weather resistant) and able to go to the areas adjacent to docks
or launches. A battery PA speaker could help.

 

Is there any course with these materials? Do I or may I develop one, if
something is not already available? 

 

Then,
