First Aid Training
Standard First Aid Course 3rd – 4th March 2012
Standard First Aid is a necessary qualification for the Chief Scout's and Queen’s Venturer Awards, and at least one Scouter must hold the qualification in any Section camping. A 2-day St John's Ambulance Standard First Aid Course will be held 3-4 March 2012 (both days) from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM at CFB Esquimalt Work Point for Scouts, Venturers and Scouters. The course capacity is 24 in 2 classes. A minimum of 4 Scouters is required to maintain ratio for the 2 classes.
The cost is $20.00.
Nominations for the course should be sent by e-mail to Randy Maze at the address below. The 24 spaces will be filled on a first come-first served basis for specifically named registrants. No places can be held without names. A waiting list will be established once the course is filled.
Course registration forms from the GVA website must follow with payment (one check per Group from the Group Committee) to Scout House. Youth can use the adult form, with the parent signing instead of the Group Commissioner.
Registrations and payment must be received by 24 February 2012 or the spaces will be reallocated. If for any reason you cannot attend, please let Randy know so the space can be reallocated. The course is a popular one - there should be no reason for an empty training space.
Yours in Scouting,

St Johns Standard First Aid training - Spring 2012 update
After the Standard First Aid Course in November 2011, it was announced that another course would be arranged in the new year. The course has been completely restructured, and at the moment all the instructors are away learning the new material.
When they return, we will work on a new date for the spring. There are only 24 seats, so the course fills up very quickly. If you wish to take advantage of this opportunity, watch closely for the announcement and apply right away.
Yours in Scouting
