AMI ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

The last weekend of January saw the Annual General Meeting of the Association of Mountaineering Instructors  at Glenmore Lodge. This is the second AGM that I have co-ordinated at the Lodge this time with the assistance of Sandy Paterson who did a great job of arranging a package of top class CPD workshops. The package was administered through Liz Belk the events co-ordinator who ensured that everything went well before and during the two day event.

The weekend was open to both trainee and full members of the AMI. Saturday and Sunday were set aside for workshops and the AGM itself was held at 5.30pm on the Saturday evening. A Talk by top UK climber Nick Bullock followed dinner. 

The workshops programme included the following:

Glenmore Lodge in deep mid winter

Transceiver use and Companion Rescue
MIC Trainee
GPS
Avalanche & Snow Safety
MLT provider Workshop
Dry Tooling

BMC FUNdamentals 
MWIS weather forecasting
MIC Refresher
Winter ML update/trainee workshop

Technical Advisor Workshop

A great weekend and thanks to the Glenmore Lodge staff and all the workshop providers for making it such a success.
