Summer TLIs for 2011

It’s 100 degrees in shade and you know what that means … it’s time to attend a TLI where we’ll crank up the air conditioning so high that you’ll think it’s December!

We will have two TLIs in Lubbock this summer.  The first is on Saturday, July 16th, and the second is on Tuesday, July 19th.  Please try to have at least 4 officers trained at one or the other of the two TLIs (it is not necessary to attend both … you’re welcome to but you don’t have to).

TLI on July 16

Location: LP&L Operations Center
Address: 404 Municipal Drive, Lubbock, TX (it’s about a quarter mile east of I-27 on Municipal Drive)

TLI on July 19

Location: Home Plate Diner on South University
Address: 7615 University Ave (right next to the Wienerschnitzel … it’s impossible to miss)

Time: 6:00pm to 9:00pm

See you there!
