Test out of Several Level 1 Cert Requirements at Retreat

[Ellie Matuszak]

Hi all,

As at Portland Expo and RGR 2011, we are offering a Test Out session at RGR 2012 in Skamania. Experienced Roasters may attend this session and attempt to test out of several Level 1 RG Certification Requirements. The Test Out is offered on Sunday of Retreat (August 19) and registration is required, though the session is complimentary to RG Members (non-members pay $100).
