KR TRAINING NOVEMBER 2015 NEWS
DYNAMIC FIRST AID CLASS DECEMBER 5
First aid training is important: its training you might need to keep yourself or someone you love alive until medics can reach you. So far in life, I've used the skills learned in first aid training more times than I've used the skills I've learned in firearms classes. This article from The Atlantic discusses the importance of having first aid skills in a mass violence event like what occurred in Paris, or Ft. Hood, or Columbine, or Newtown, or Aurora.
Caleb Causey of Lone Star Medics returns for a 1 day Dynamic First Aid on Saturday, Dec 5. Nobody else in the area offers this type of training on any regular basis, and we won't be offering it again until summer 2016. Slots are still open.
