April 1, 2008 We Teach Basic Survival Skills in Virginia!
We were retained to travel to the prestigious Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia to present a Basic Survival Skills course the weekend of March 29th. This is one of the last two all men's colleges left in the US. The lecture portions of our course were presented indoors in refined and elegant surroundings. We then took the students out into the woods on the 900 acre campus, which even included hiking trails, for hands-on instruction. We have been asked to consider presenting some extended programs this fall. For more photos please visit our Photo Album by clicking on the "Photo Album" button on the left side of the page.

November 16, 2007 We visit the Katadyn Factory in Switzerland!
In November 2007 during another visit to Switzerland, our Director, John McCann, and Sales Manager, Denise Vogler, were invited to visit the Katadyn Factory, where all of their water purification products are manufactured. They were surprised when they arrived, with Denise's mother and father, to see a welcome sign in the lobby for all of them. They meet with the Head of Marketing for Katadyn, Viola Frey, who started them off with coffee and espresso. John was impressed with Viola's ability to speak English, as he had anticipated having Denise translate for him (his Swiss-German has gotten better but still isn't good). They examined every area of the factory, from making the actual ceramic filters, to the final assembly of the various products. Everyone was extremely friendly and willing to explain their function in the manufacturing process. The new Vario, which screws directly to a Nalgene bottle, as well as additional Katadyn products have been added to our Water Purification products section.
