How about "The Film-Tech Veteran Mentoring/Training Network"?

Veterans of the industry and new comers interested in the industry can sign up. The new comers travel to your theatre and the 2 of you go into the booth and they watch you for half the day and then you teach them and they start to try it.

It could be tweaked a little bit, but I think it sounds pretty good!

Andrew, please learn to use the edit button at the top of your finished post if you desire to go back and add something later. The two examples are right above this post.

Mankato, MN. We have ABSOLUTELY nothing to offer (aside from Minnesota Vikings training camp in July/August). Other than that, the next closest thing I can think of is the Mall of America just an hour north.

Nashville, Tennessee.

We have some pretty good stuff here. Tennessee Titans (NFL), Nashville Predators (NHL), Nashville Kats (Arena Football), Hard Rock Cafe, Planet Hollywood, Wildhorse Saloon, the new Country Music Hall of Fame, OpryMills w/ Regal's new IMAX theatre, and the Worlds Largest Adult Book Store (don't know first hand - just read the sign) ... just to name a few.

Oh.. for anyone who's a NASCAR fan, the brand new Dover Downs "Nashville Super Speedway" opens in two weeks!!

For NBA fans, Memphis just landed the VanCouver Grizzlies.... but NOBODY from Nashville would ever consider driving to Memphis!!

After you finish with all of that, you can drive out to my place and help me rebuild four Brenkert BX-60's and an old Simplex XL!!

And... if you wait till April of 2002... you should be able to check out the NEW "Stardust Drive-In Theatre".

The Mentor idea sounds good! I would gladly
work with someone at my shop doing repair / rebuild work if they want to learn! Of course
the future may be short in it, but it does afford me a lot of fun!
