Where to start (books, networking, etc)
Hello! I want to learn everything about REI and don't really know where to start. The app has loads of information and blogs, it is a bit overwhelming. Any advice, especially books to read and/or how to network to learn from other REI's, would be appreciated! I'm excited to educate myself first and foremost and go from there. It's a bit scary, but I've had this gut feeling for a long that this is something I want to do. Thank you!

@Josh Caldwell I actually read it last year and it was one of the reasons I decided that I wanted to get into REI.
I will look into meetup groups. I’m on Long Island. Hopefully, they are meeting again since Covid has slowed down here.
