Save-A-Life Saturday Is Tomorrow

Gabrielle Giffords Honorary "Save-A-Life Saturday" is tomorrow.  You have the opportunity to learn "hands-only" CPR and other First Aid skills at this FREE event at the Genesee-Lapeer chapter of the American Red Cross.  Each training session lasts approximately 45 minutes, and will be offered free of charge at the Red Cross at 1401 S. Grand Traverse in Flint.  Classes available from 8 am to 4 pm.

"The tragedy in Tuscon is a reminder of how important it is for everyone to know first aid and CPR," said Kenneth E. Vavra Executive Director.  "As this tragic event unfolded, several bystanders knew these vital skills, which helped save the life of many victims, including Congresswoman Giffords.  This inspired us to offer this training right here in our community." 

You are encouraged to RSVP by calling (810) 766-6405.

If you cannot attend, but would like to learn these important skills, an online tutorial is available at:  www.redcross.org/savealife
