WILDERNESS FIRST AID FOR TEENS

Saturday, May 31, 2025
8:30 - 12:30 pm
$95

Every parent wants to raise kind, curious, and capable kids—children who think critically, make good decisions, and embrace adventure. But even in the best circumstances, accidents happen. That’s why it’s essential to equip kids with the confidence and skills to handle emergencies.

Our goal is to remove the fear from first aid by teaching simple, effective steps to manage common
injuries in a fun, age-appropriate format. Through hands-on learning, kids will gain practical knowledge
they can use to help themselves and others in real-life situations.

Tuition includes a mini first aid kit and a course certificate—empowering young adventurers with both
skills and preparedness.

(Ages 12 and up) Instructor: Catherine Robnett
