well this is my first time going to NESA and im doing basic ground team stuff. but i dont know what i need (like 72hr gear ETC) can anyone help me out and is anyone else going?
go to the nesa site and download the packing list.
alright thanks :D
yes. packing list.
go as light and compact as possible in everything, test everything, write your name on everything.
Don't count on being able to do laundry. Yeah, it's down the road but you'll be lucky if you have time and can get permission for a group to go down there.
Brig everything on the gear list! You will need all of it. But also don't spend a lot on ur gear either. I have taken 3 years to get my gear just the way I like it. Can't wait to see you there. I am one of the basic CTAs this year. I'll be the one with red hair the staff are calling ginger.

I just went to the NESA site (http://www.nesa.cap.gov/index.htm) and couldn't find a packing list to download.
I did find this though...
Quote from: NESA SiteThe first day training day will include an inspection of each student's field gear. No student will be allowed to interrupt training to go shopping for new or replacement gear. Students must ensure they arrive with the gear, as specified in the National Emergency Services Academy Gear List. There are no opportunities for students to acquire gear during the activity. It is imperative that students use the task guide and NESA's packing list to insure they have all required gear.
And Google helped me find the
2009 P&P Document, which does have a packing list.
The 2009 should be fine. To my knowldge nothing has changed so it will be the same as this year's list.
yeah i wasnt able to find one and thanks for the 2009 one
Just remember to check the site regularly for updates and posting of the release forms.
We did actually make some changes between 09/10 and this year. The P&P isn't quite ready yet, but I'll see what I can do about just posting the packing lists.

Sorry. My bad sir.
The packing list for the NGSAR schools has been uploaded to the GSAR section of the NESA site.
The full 2011 Policies and Procedures document has been uploaded under the Participant Information section of the NESA site.
Good luck, enjoy.

Wish I could be there this year but I can't get time off of work.
