Organized Event: Trail Safety /CERT/ Drive In Movie Night

[New2image]

Every summer when the weather is nice we open up the backyard and have a outdoor movie night.
I am set up with a 15ft Movie screen and surround sound!!
We can accomadate probably up to 60 people easily,
Heck I will even supply the popcorn.
This time we are also having a member of CERT (Citizens Emengency Response Team)and also DART programs ,an EMT, plus a member of CI 4x4 , come and talk about earthquake safety and preparedness and also tying it in with Trail Safety and what you should carry in your rig in case of an Trail or Medical emergency.
I figure we all have CBs 4x4 and the resources to help in case of a major earthquake and why not be prepared.

THIS IS NOT a wheeling event but more a eye opener as we are overdue for a major trembler.

Everyone is welcome, but bring a chair, something to drink and a appetizer to share and kick back and enjoy stories and great company and comeaway with some knowledge that you can use.
I also encourage other people to share their knowlegde also so we can all learn from each other.

People new to 4 wheeling is encourged to come so we can help you out with the basics.


Starts at 630pm
Movie at 8pm KING of the Hammers 09
Movie at 930pm Fast and the Furious (New one)

A member here...cutting a zip-tie off his sway bar with a dull knife. When zip cut, knife continued into his radial artery. Blood was squirting out about 3 feet. Direct pressure on wound, elevated above heart, direct pressure on bracial artery, and ice stopped the bleeding. After final bandaging, he stated, "I'm not going to no doctor, I came out here to wheel", and off we went!

I'll RSVP for this. I think I'm well prepared but I always like to hear what others carry. And even though I was there, watching KOH 09 on a big screen will be awesome.

Sorry, I'm not going to make it. Maybe next time...
