AED (Automated External Defibrillator) Training

Fire Captain Tom Milliken is back on-island and willing to put on two more seminars about the new AED (automated external defibrillator) now permanently installed at the community centre.  This short seminar will show you exactly what to do when somebody at Forbes Hall suffers a sudden cardiac arrest.  Ask any of the people who have already attended this informative workshop and they will tell you that even if you already know all about CPR and AEDs, you will be very happy you took the hour to learn something new.  And it's fun.  

We will be running the last two seminars if there are enough people interested.  Please email chief11@telus.netif you wish to attend on SUNDAY, MARCH 2 at 1 p.m., or THURSDAY, MARCH 6 at 7 p.m.  Or leave a message at the firehall:  246-4834.  BOTH SEMINARS TAKE PLACE AT THE FIREHALL on Mission Road, NOT at the community centre.  We welcome all ages.   If you ever use Forbes Hall, you should know how to use the Public AED.

Bioengineering Course

The Cowichan Land Trust will be offering a Bioengineering Course again this year on Friday and Saturday March 7th & 8th, from 9am to 4pm in Duncan, BC.

The two-day course is aimed at anyone wanting to learn more about ecological restoration options with an emphasis on bioengineering techniques. Soil bioengineering is an applied science that uses live plant materials to perform an engineering function such as slope stabilization, soil erosion control, or seepage control. This two day course will focus on soil bioengineering techniques and options involved in restoration and reclamation of damaged ecosystems using a combination of structural materials, vegetative cuttings and other specialized methods. 

For more information contact (250) 746-0227 or email: info@cowichanlandtrust.ca.
