first_aidMike Reisinger will again offer a class for the First Aid merit badge on Monday evenings at 6 pm starting September 8, 2008. All scouts who do not have this eagle-required merit badge are encouraged to attend. Scouts who have not yet achieved First Class rank are especially encouraged so they may complete the first aid requirements for Tenderfoot, Second Class, and First Class advancement. All sessions will be held at Trinity Bible Church.
