The host company will be responsible for morning and afternoon break refreshments and lunch.

Cost recovery: Only cost recovery is being charged for the workshops. There is no cost for the instructor but you will be charged for mileage (currently $0.55/mi), printed material, per diem and lodging if an overnight stay is necessary.

*The rationale in serving those companies in surrounding Counties is that they probably buy logs and service Lincoln County landowners in other ways.

The instructor is Jim Reeb who has 9 years of experience working in the industry and has been working with the forest products industry for over 25 years. He has taught about 140 workshops to approximately 4,000 mostly industry clients.
