Small ideas turn into huge successes when you find the right people to carry something forward. This event was literally scribbled out on napkins at a restaurant down in San Marcos, TX in 2016. Jay Darin, Special Agent (now retired), had a passion to make Wisconsin one of the best trained Stated in the country when it comes to preparation for Active threat situations and this organization continues the momentum he started years prior.
Some of the great people who help to build this fantastic training event.
Thank you to all who volunteer to put this together!
In 2024 our committee has worked to create a 501C3 organization for our training group.
Check out our new website here! You may need to have your IT support add as a safe website since we just created it in 2024. We will transition to this new website for our 2026 event. Please add this site to your favorites!
