From the monthly trail runs, to the social dinners, and annual larger scale events, now I understand how much work goes into everything the club does for its members and I&#8217;d like to help by serving on the Council.&nbsp;<br><br><br><br>Two years ago I took the Trail Leader Training and began hosting trail runs for the club. We also joined a few overnight trips and have really enjoyed the comradery of the members spending time together on the trail and around the fire. I have grown in my skills in group leadership, hospitality, off-road driving skills, spotting, off-road navigation, recovery, basic first aid, and even camping!<br><br><br><br>My interests in joining the Council are inclusion of all club members in our trail runs and events, growing the club&#8217;s paid membership, growing member participation in trail runs and events, promoting the use of HAM radio as the club&#8217;s method off off-road communication, helping create unique club offerings (educational classes, trail runs, trips, etc.) and representing\/growing our membership in Southern AZ.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.azlro.org\/5\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Chad_manz-1024x599.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4446\" width=\"593\" height=\"346\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.azlro.org\/5\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Chad_manz-1024x599.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.azlro.org\/5\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Chad_manz-300x175.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.azlro.org\/5\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Chad_manz-768x449.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.azlro.org\/5\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Chad_manz-1536x898.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.azlro.org\/5\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Chad_manz-2048x1198.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.azlro.org\/5\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Chad_manz-1400x819.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/www.azlro.org\/5\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Chad_manz-800x468.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 593px) 100vw, 593px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><strong>CHAD MANZ<\/strong><br><\/strong>chadmanz@hotmail.com<strong><br><br><\/strong>Chad has been active in AZLRO for over 20 years and is a lifetime member.
