Trainings were held in both Libby and Eureka and were put on by the Local Government Center, a part of the Extension Service at MSU. The Eureka training was held at the fairgrounds, and the building felt rather large and vacant for the size of the group. Attendees were members of public county boards as well as private nonprofits.
The presenter provided folders with handouts, including relevant sections of law and a cheat sheet for parliamentary procedure. Additionally, attendees were referred to a free course in parliamentary procedure developed by the Local Government Center and available on their website. People with questions are encouraged to reach out to the folks at the Local Government Center.
It was a good training, and would be worth repeating, though if Lincoln County is sponsoring it again, we ought to consider arranging a more welcoming venue for our presenters, and perhaps a coffee pot.
