FISTA Chainsaw Safety Training

Bob Retko, senior grounds manager and author of From the Wild Side, a recurring feature on this blog, organized a Basic Level Chainsaw Safety Training Certification class at the Village of River Hills meeting room. The class, which was organized in conjunction with the Forest Industry Safety Training Alliance (FISTA) from Rhinelander was led by Ben Parsons. Twelve participants learned basic chainsaw safety techniques from 7 am until 3 pm. See below for some pictures from the training session.
