While back ol' Yellerhouse says to me, "We need to do something to get our Shoot Bosses as much medical training as we can.  These people are working more shoots in weirder conditions than anybody really expected.  Seriously, regardless of the unthinkable, we need to know more about how to treat frostbite and heatstroke."  So ol' SPQR starts to thinking,

"Shouldn't we do it for as many instructors as possible?"

Well, here you go.  Following the December 10th One Day Appleseed event at Marion County Fish and Game the Indiana Appleseed Project will be hosting a medical training workshop specifically designed for our personnel on December 11th.  All are welcome.  The agenda will include:

December 11th, 2011  Marion County Fish and Game
Medical Training Workshop
CPR with certification card
Basic first aid with Certification card
Basic Trauma with Course Completion Certificate
Violent/Penetrating Trauma

The course will be taught by Matthew Heithoff of Lifesavers LLC., an all around good guy and Applecore member also known as redneckmedic.  The cost is $20 per student and that includes certification costs.

As someone who has taken the trauma class he teaches to the general public, I consider this course to be a steal at twice the price.  So, come one come all and make your line a safer place to be!  (or just bask in the beneficence of SPQR, you decide)

Thanks for the heads-up.  I'm 90% likely in (gotta check with SWMBO), and will try to scare up a carload of MI instructors.

Any place we could crash overnight?

Man I really want to go to this.

Unfortunately, after looking at the calendar, the 10th is the Swamp Thing family Christmas dinner.

Let's hope this can be an ongoing thing.

If you get down we will find a place a for a bedroll

OK, I'm in for this. 

Any Michigan instructors that would like to attend, please let me know, I'd be happy to have some company for the drive.  I'll use the car if there's 1-2 passengers, or I'll use the DAS (Designated Appleseed Suburban) if there's more, or if foul weather is forecasted.  It seats 6 very comfortably, and can sit 8 max.  All I ask is you meet me at my house, or along the way to minimize my additional travel time.

My tentative plan is to leave Saturday ~ 2PM, and drive home Sunday night, after the class is over.  Please pm me if you're interested in carpooling.

Last call, we have some seats left and need to fill them!

I'm not going to be able to make it.  Sorry for the short notice.  I encourage anyone who can, to attend by all means.

Note the location change.  Bigger, warmer, and better bathroom facilities
