Want to learn how to survive while in the back country? What should you do if you encounter an emergency away from traditional medicine?

Join us at Westmoreland State Park where you can learn from a certified WFR (wilderness first responder) and a current MD about how you should respond in emergencies. Figure out what is best to take with you when hiking, what to do with minor injuries and even some serious injuries. This program is limited to 16 people and make sure to reserve your spot in this class. This class will be $10pp and each individual needs to be 14 years of age or older to participate.

(if there is enough interest this could turn into a series, so if you have any investment in this topic come join us).
