SUMMARY:Fundamentals of Search and Rescue Weekend 2
DESCRIPTION:This is the second half of FUNSAR training. For the first half\, click here. \nThe Fundamentals of Search and Rescue (FUNSAR) course is the second\, intermediate level of NASAR courses. It provides knowledge concerning the general responsibilities\, skills\, abilities\, and the equipment needed by persons who are assigned to field operations during a SAR mission. \nThe FUNSAR course also provides the student with practical exercises in addition to a practice search mission where the students are required to have the proper equipment and stay out in the field during daylight and nighttime operations. The course content includes topics in three major areas: survival\, support\, search\, and rescue. This course is based around the rural and wilderness environments but the material is recommended as a basis for all SAR environments. \nFUNSAR provides a common point in training for the new person to SAR and allows them to accumulate the required clothing and equipment needed for SAR operations in their community. The course also provides practical experience during simulated SAR operations and in many cases is an excellent refresher course for the more experienced SAR worker. This common starting point provides continuity during SAR operations and future training of all team members. \nFUNSAR is the NASAR course designed to prepare the student to challenge the SARTECH II certification exam\, according to knowledge objectives defined in the NASAR certification criteria for SARTECH II. \nThe recommended number of hours for the course is (47) forty-seven. The course is usually conducted over two weekends starting on Friday night but can be taught (5) five days straight.\nQuote: “The FUNSAR course I took not only gave me the basic skills and understanding of doing a proper\, safe search\, but also gave me the confidence to take care of myself and my team members during search operations. The FUNSAR course should be a minimum requirement for anyone wanting to be part of a SAR Team.” David Moskowitz\, Director Arkansas Department of Health – Division of EMS & Trauma Systems. \nWho Should Attend\nThose interested in becoming involved or have just become involved with search and rescue operations. \nSAR personnel who would like to maintain or refresh their knowledge of search and rescue. \nEmergency response personnel who belong to organizations who provide resources and assistance during search and rescue missions. \nManagers of emergency response organizations who want to understand the state of the art skills and knowledge needed by the SAR workers. \nCommunity members and groups (scouts\, hunters\, hikers\, etc.) that have an interest in safety and preventative SAR operations.

SUMMARY:Shire Post Mint 2nd Annual Shire Fest
DESCRIPTION:Event: Saturday\, October 28\, 11am – 5pm\nAddress: 52 W Main St\, West Fork\, Arkansas\, 72774\nWebsite: shirepost.com | Phone Number: 479-208-7700\nFollow on Social Media: @shirepostmint on Instagram\, TikTok\, Facebook\, and Twitter \n(West Fork\, Ark) All are welcome to join us for Shire Fest from 11am to 5pm on Saturday\, October 28 at Shire Post Mint\, a local family-run fantasy coining operation located at 52 W Main St. in West Fork. This is the second public event since Shire Post Mint opened its doors to walk-in customers in October 2021 at their custom designed building including a workshop and retail space.  \nVendors featured within the space\, as well as local craftspeople from around the area\, will have specialty goods for sale\, including clothes\, books\, jewelry\, beauty and wellness products\, leather\, candles\, gaming accessories\, arts\, crafts\, and more. Other performances\, games\, and activities are ongoing throughout the day as are food and drink vendors. An all-ages costume contest will be held\, and all are welcomed to attend in costume. \nThe indoor retail shop will be open\, offering a variety of hand-crafted coins—from favorite series like The Lord of the Rings and A Game of Thrones to specialty in-house designs\, like Moon Coins\, breakable Pizza Coins\, and Tooth Fairy Coins. Shire Fest also celebrates the opening of other spaces throughout our grounds and building\, as well as new permanent art pieces.  \n“We had about 500 people attend last year’s event\,” said Helen Maringer\, CEO of Shire Post\, “We are excited to build on our success from last year and have an even bigger event this year!”  \nShire Post Mint began in 2001 when Tom Maringer bought his first antique coin press. His techniques of hand-engraving steel dies and pressing one at a time were used in the 1800s and earlier. After a few years of research\, refinement\, and building a following\, he worked with George R.R. Martin to make custom coins made from his series A Song of Ice and Fire. Since then\, Shire Post Mint has grown into an internationally-recognized company known for attention to detail and a high level of craftsmanship.
