6:30pm Presentation by Roland Steadham – join us to learn more about backcountry weather and view some of Roland’s exceptional backcountry video production work.

“Roland has been a meteorologist for 35 years. If fact, he’s spent half of his career forecasting hurricanes and severe thunderstorms in South Florida. The other half has been spent in the west with most of his time in Utah. His experience ranging from tropical weather to blizzards makes him uniquely qualified to be the Chief Meteorologist for KBOI 2 News. After working from coast to coast, he and his family have decided that there is no place like the west with Boise being the highlight of his career. Roland is married with six children. He is the son of a Cuban immigrant and proud of his Latin heritage. He also speaks fluent Spanish. When he’s not forecasting the weather he spends much of his time with his head in the clouds. You see, he’s also a commercial licensed pilot and avid skydiver. He’s logged over 3,000 hours flying everything from competition aerobatics to twin engine jets and gliders. He also has over 700 skydives under his belt. Roland attended Brigham Young University and the University of Utah. He finished his education through the Mississippi State Meteorology Program. Roland has been awarded both the American Meteorological Society and National Weather Association Seal of Approval.”

Come out and join us for a little dinner and social time and an interesting and informative presentation. Please RSVP if you can to assist in planning food and drink.
