Regional Advocate Michael Petroff and Region II Regional Advocate Danny McDonough conducted a CTBS Train-the-Trainer in Ames, Iowa on February 9, 2008. State Advocates Kevin Wieser and Scott Lyon were in attendance as was State Training Director Randy Novak and members of the Iowa Fire Training staff. Coralville IA was presented with a Brian Hunton Seatbelt Pledge 100% compliance certificate by State Advocates Wieser and Lyon.

The regional monthly phone call was held with one advocate on the call with the regional advocate. Three or four state advocates plan to attend the IPASS. Two state mailing lists have been submitted to the regional advocate to bring to IPASS.

The CTBS class was delivered at Missouri Winter Fire School by Vicki Schulte and Todd Farley. Advocate Steve Arnold was teaching another class at WFS but assisted at the EGH booth. Lead Advocate for MO Kate Moore has been "off duty" having a baby. No word on when, what or how big.

Other states plan on CTBS deliveries including KS and IA.

Respectfully,
Mike Petroff
