Ronald McDonald explains how to appropriately give CPR at the Boone Health Fair!

The Lincoln Way Chapter of the Red Cross along with lots of other service and health organizations gathered Saturday March 31st at the "Treasure Your Health" Fair at DMACC in Boone, IA to show the importance of staying healthy. The Red Cross gave out 'Get Prepared Water', 'Hero braclets' and tons of valuable information on ways that you, your family, your business, and your organization can save a life! 

2007 CPR SATURDAY
Due to the weather CPR Saturday was been postponed until March 24th. The event was held at the Ames Public Library on Douglas Ave in downtown Ames. The event was absolutely FREE and open to everyone! We were able to train 124 participants in the lifesaving skill of Adult CPR thanks to our sponsors, instructors and volunteers!

                                          

P.A.C.E. (Parents Acting in a Crisis or Emergency)***
This ongoing program partners with local human service agencies to teach emergency parenting skills.  This year's sessions are made available with financial support through a grant from the Community Foundation of Greater Story County.  Sessions include Child/Infant CPR and First Aid. P.A.C.E. is in it's second year and we are excited about new partnership opportunities! The VERY First Session was held on February 22nd & 24th, 2006 at the People Place in Ames where six mothers were certified in Child and Infant CPR.  They also learned how to make family emergency plans for emergencies and natural disasters.
