Will it be streamed /  recorded?

Since most of the training will be in the field there's not much opportunity for streaming but I will look into options for some of the presentations.

Thanks so much, please do let me know if you do manage, it would be great to get involved somehow or at least watch some proceedings.

Hi Adam,

I don't want to get your hopes up but it's probably not going to be possible given the nature of the type event. Totally on a ranch and multiple training stations at different locations some at the same time. BUT I would like to see what might be possible and will speak with the event organizer.

Thanks in advance @lmccaskill hope to be involved if there will be any access to it and looking forward to hear from youyou.

Hi Emmah,

Thanks again for inquiring. At this time there is no plans for streaming of the presentations. I'm hoping in the future we can add this option but right now doesn't look like that will be possible. 

I apologize for this!
