I’m pleased to announce that our Special Event Safety Seminar has been fully updated, with a newly expanded companion book designed to serve as your go-to reference guide long after the seminar ends.

We are proud to have trained over 5,000 professionals across 25+ years — a milestone that speaks to the trust and impact we’ve earned in helping law enforcement, public safety, security teams, and city/county officials navigate today’s complex event risks.

In a time of rising threats at public events, planning and preparation are not optional — they are essential. Lives, reputations, and financial futures depend on the decisions made before disaster strikes. Visit our website to see recent event tragedies that underscore why this training matters.

📅 Upcoming Seminar Dates:
November 11–13, 2025 — Fort Lauderdale, FL
December 2–4, 2025 — San Diego, CA

👉 Reserve your spot now: www.SpecialEventSafety.com

If you’re no longer in the Special Events field, please forward this invitation to your Special Events Supervisor or anyone in your network who would benefit from this vital training.

Let’s work together to make every event safe, secure, and successful.

Best regards,

As we prepare to celebrate and enjoy Independence Day, please be vigilant in public places where large crowds gather.

Most Americans are patriotic and fun loving while others may feel the need to protest and become violent in order to make a statement.

Be observant, be aware of your surroundings and avoid conflict. Most importantly, enjoy your family, friends and the beautiful country we are fortunate enough to live in and call home.

Best of intentions for a nice holiday show...I wonder what contingencies were in place to mitigate drone collisions? Was the crowd setback far enough away to reduce the risk? Was this preventable? I hope the young boy who was injured recovers well. Very unfortunate.
