Operations Basic Training
OBT Workshop
Starting November 4 Division Seven is holding an Operations Basic Training (OBT) workshop. The workshop was developed to help guide members through a self passed training program in order to pass their crew or coxswain rating.

The workshop will be held once a month on the first Saturday, from 0900 to 1200 hours. The members will meet at the State of Utah, Department of Natural Resources building, 1594 West North Temple Salt Lake City.
