Yesterday, three seniors attended a Stop the Bleed Training put on through the McHenry County Extension office. Through this training they were able to learn how to pack a wound and use a tourniquet. They also learned why these skills are important in rural areas. They were sent home with a kit that contains items to help stop a bleed or save a life until emergency services were able to get there. Thank you to the Drake Fire Department for hosting and to the McHenry County Extension for putting this training on!
Reminder: No School Tomorrow, Friday, March 6 – Spring Break Day! 🌷
