A Conference Like No Other

[Guest guest]

A nice write up.

Check your egos and certifications at the gate.

That was the prime directive for participants at EMStock

<http://www.emstock.com/> , the unique outdoor EMS conference held on

<http://www.ems1.com/Columnists/bryan-bledsoe/> Bledsoe's ranch this past

weekend in Midlothian, Texas. This year's event was the fourth EMStock,

whose origins date back to 2003.

The original EMStock was conceived by a dedicated group of volunteers to

honor the memory of Gene Weatherall, a true EMS pioneer and the guiding

force behind many of the initiatives that ushered in Texas' modern EMS

systems. Shortly before Gene died of cancer in 1999, he lamented the fact

that he had never been able to pull off a " statewide EMS pasture party and

chili cookoff " in Texas.
