Has anyone heard any news about when and where the upcoming NMBP CPR/First Aid training class is taking place?
Last I heard, we were shooting for Sunday afternoon Feb 15 at the Visitor Center on the SC side of the dam.
Charlie Mock are we still on for that?

Just a heads up...looks like it will be toward the end of April before the first aid/CPR training will take place.

www.americanheart.org/presenter.jhtml?identifier=1200167&division=GSA025go here! I got my AHA Heartsaver CPR/AED done last fall as part of an on campus class at USCA but i'm sure you can get something sorted easier than that. This is if you are looking for certification/knowledge as a first responder until an EMT arrives or a hospital is provided. However this applies to the NMBP i haven't checked out their qualifications or information taught.

Sounds like what we need for the NMBP. I waited to late to call them today to find out about classes. I do know that the Red Cross is conducting a combined First Aid/CPR/AED class this Saturday 3/14/09 for a fee of $60. I may just do that to get it completed sooner. I'll also contact the Heart Assn tomorrow to see what they offer.
Thanks for the tip TJ!

I'm happy to report that I have completed my CPR/First Aid certification training required for NMBP membership. Special thanks to Charlie Mock!
When I return from my trip at the end of the month, I will set about to arrange the next NMBP training class for those who have expressed interest in becoming members of the Bike Patrol.
I'll post the details when I have them.

To be certified as an NMBP member you have to have CPR and first aid training. Charlie Mock is going to train whoever needs this training on April 25 at the Coke facility.
Anyone that wants to take the NMBP training should come take the CPR and first aid training. Please email Charlie and let him know by Tuesday April 21. His email address is CharlesJM3@yahoo.com
