I missed last year, so sign me up too. May bring wife if the dates work and there is space. I think you said last year you did the infant section too, right?

We cover infant, adult and CPR so if you are a new dad/mom (hint, hint...) you will definetly know how to take care of the kiddies. Like Ollie said , we do all of the basics but do cover some kitter specific situations and scenarios. What we found out last time was that the combination of more experienced kitters added to the all incompassing "this is how you deal with all tipes of emergencies" generated some pretty good ideas of how to adapt things for our needs.

As far as dates a weekend is going to work better and my available dates are February 23, March 1, 8, 15, 22, 29...I would really like to encourage SI locals to make the trip. Great way to meet kitters you might not know and we can cover the majority of the bay-delta as far as having trained people available in the event of something going bad.

I am also going be talking to people (probably schools) in both locations about donating some of our first aid kits. Can't kite without a kite, can't do first aid without first aid gear.

I'm getting amped.

I'm in on any of those dates. Didn't go to last years, and my CPR/First Aid is expired. See you all there.

This is the best CPR/First aid class I have EVER been to, i've never learned so much hands on First-Aid! Kirk is the best instructor! Yes, March 15th works for us too. March 1st or 15th are the only dates that work for us.

Thanks again for doing this, Kirk, it would also be great to see everyone again!
