The long summer fades. The winds grow colder. Snow gathers beyond the mountains.
Across the Eastern Division, patrol packs stir from their summer slumber. Radios awaken. Trauma shears are found in forgotten pockets. And throughout the realm, an ancient warning is spoken once more: OEC IS COMING. Every patroller knows their duty. Yet each year, there are those who ignore the ravens, dismiss the warnings, and wait until the final hours before their refresher to begin the online module. Do not be that patroller. Complete your OEC online module early. For when Refresher Day arrives, there will be no time for excuses. You will be called upon to demonstrate your skills, face the scenarios, and endure performances from fellow patrollers worthy of neither stage nor screen. Veteran or rookie, instructor or student, all must answer the call. Sharpen your skills. Ready your patrol pack. Check your gear. Reunite with your patrol. The mountain awaits. The refresher approaches. The snow will fall. Winter is coming.
