December 2009 - Decatur Christmas Parade

 

To top off probably the rainiest year in team memory, it poured down rain on us while preparing for the Decatur Christmas parade.  Luckily we mostly found an awning to stand under and it was only drizzling by the time the parade itself got started.  As usual, we had a great time walking and waving to the crowd.

 

 

 


 

October 2009 - Walk Your Paws Decatur

 

The team came out again for Walk Your Paws in Decatur, raising money for the local animal shelter.  Weather was awful but a small crowd came out.

April 2009- Illinois HRD Seminar

 

Darcy, Janet and Kate headed up to Springfield, Illinois for a weekend HRD class.  We had a lot of fun and pretty much the windiest water work we've ever done  (whitecaps!).  We all agreed tho, definitely one of the best crime scene preservation classes we've had too.  Unfortunately, we all forgot to take pictures.
