Metro Parks Ranger and Maintenance staff, did a little defensive driving training with the Summer Camp Counselors. These Counselors will be driving passenger vans during Summer Camp operations, many of whom have never driven such big vehicles. We put them through a maneuverability course to teach them proper mirror adjustment and usage, as well as to increase their spatial awareness of the vehicle. The "Serpentine on a Curve" required them to weave in and out of the cones, forwards and backwards. We are pleased to announce no cones were injured during the exercise.
