PROPOSED Periods of Instruction

Outdoor skills:

1.) (Open attendence: 15-30 minutes - Daily?) The Basic "Working Knots" (to include hitches, bends, etc.) - defined as knots [to include hitches, bends, etc.] which when understood as to their use and limitations (and properly employed within said use and limitations), whether individually or in combination, MUST meet the following criteria: 1.) Easily and quickly tied; 2.) Holds securely (absolutely, positively, will not let go) - except when you want it to release, then... 3.) Lets go in a snap.

Bring along a 12-18" section of "550 cord" (or equivalent), and let's learn to knot - together.

Wiki know-how:

2.) (30-60 minutes - Daily?) Wiki-up! Learn wiki-basics, like: sign-up, create and edit pages, resize and upload photos, create and upload PDFs, link to internal Preparing U pages and to external websites andor their page(s) - otherwise known as "The Wiki Waltz"...and join with us in this vital aspect of the kingdom (government of God) life - "preaching" (best translated "publishing") the kingdom (government of God) is at hand!

Bring your laptop and associated equipment (extention cords, mouses, etc.) so you can follow along and actually get your page(s) set up and items added - watching, then doing, will facilicate learning and you'll better retain what you've learned until sitting down again to do more of this.

Broadcast Co-host mechanics:

1.) If it seems good to not have all our eggs in one basket in this regard, and if Paul B. is going to be in attendence (and especially if he will still be supporting Brother Gregory), then perhaps he can demonstrate for us some behind the scenes operations, and/or some of us can sit with him during the show and watch and learn - live!?
