Title: Lonestar ES Academy cancelled?
Post by: xray328 on July 08, 2015, 03:53:45 AM
I was looking for info on the Lonestar ES Academy that's held over Christmas. Anyone know if it's still being held?

Their Facebook page says the 2015 Academy is cancelled but I see there's a summer and winter session...

The squadrons page doesn't have any info regarding anything being cancelled...

Thanks!

There were a few issues that are being worked on and from what I have heard within the Wing is that we hope it will be taken care of before next years LESA. The entire ES program in the TXWG is being reworked for FY16.

So we should assume there won't be a Christmas '15 session I guess?

Does this mean that Ann-Margret's not coming?

Looks like only the Nacogdoches site is cancelled, Brownsvilles winter session is still on.

I certainly hope it is just a temporary thing. LESA and LESA South are the two ways I get most of my ES training done, as I do not have funds to go out of state to NESA.

It's Texas, depending on where you live vs where the activity its as far as driving out of state

NESA is a lot farther than the last two locations for LESA and LESA South is still closer.


For me, anyways. If I lived in Dallas, it would be a different story.
