Wilderness First Aid
Join us for a two-day OWL skill-building workshop: Wilderness First Aid! November 14-15 from 9 am to 5 pm.
Accidents happen. People get hurt, sick, or lost. The temperature drops, the wind picks up, and it starts to rain. Would you know what to do? Many backcountry emergencies are preventable; even when bad things happen, sometimes the wrong care can worsen things. By learning a few basic skills, you can make the difference between a good and bad outcome – and maybe even save a life.
Wilderness First Aid is the perfect course for outdoor enthusiasts who want basic first-aid training for short trips with family, friends, or outdoor groups. We are excited to have Nancy Zane, a Registered Maine Guide and owner of NorthStar Adventures, return to teach this course!
Wilderness First Responder recertification will be available to participants for an additional $15.00 per person. You must have a SOLO WFR to recertify with a WFA course. If you have a WFR from a company other than SOLO, you can only recertify with a WFR recertification course.
CPR certification will be available immediately after class for an additional $25 per person.
For any questions, email Lizzie at lizzie@whrl.org or call 413-717-7827.
