| Dear Fans, AED/DEFIBRILLATOR TRAINING 
Last summer the Fairfield County Ct Jewish Baseball League (FCCJBL) purchased an AED (or defibrillator) to have on-site for all of our games. Many thanks to all the folks who helped to support our fund raising campaign over the last 2 seasons to make it a reality. Next up, is getting some coaches and parents trained in the use of an AED along with child and adult CPR. We have partnered with the local Stamford chapter of the American Red Cross and will have a training program planned for March 13th. We invite members of the larger Fairfield County Jewish community to participate. So many of our area organizations - synagogues, JCCs, and others have purchased these incredible life-saving devices. And while these AEDs can talk you through the process to save a life, very few people have been formally trained. And those who have been trained, could use a refresher. The program offered by the American Red Cross is 5 1/2 hours, includes adult and child AED and CPR training. A practical exam following the training will result in a 2-year certification. The standard price for these classes is $85. We will be offering discounts to people who have coached, sponsored or had children in the FCCJBL program in either 2010 or have registered for 2011. Additional discounts will be available for Jewish communal workers in the our area communities. For more information, please contact the Commish at seth@fccjbl.org. Anyone or any organization looking to sponsor this event to help defray our training costs should also contact the Commish at seth@fccjbl.org. Help us to be ready to save a life. |
