Safety / On & Off The Trail / Re: SAFETY CLASS at RC

« on: October 26, 2014, 02:09:36 pm »

I am glad to say we had a great " safety day" the weather was AWESOME . The trails were in great shape and the group that we took out had a great attitude  we had a total of 4 jeeps , two of which have never been to Rausch , Shanon and Howard did a great job at picking up valuable safety and driving techniques that were taught by myself and Peter . We started the day off with a brief talk and winch demonstration then hit the trails,staying on mostly BLUES . We explored the TA TA trail as well as the 101 area. All in all we spent about 5 hours on the trails.

Safety / On & Off The Trail / TRAIL FIRST AID CLASS

« on: October 03, 2014, 03:37:26 pm »

Since I had to reschedule the CPR class for OCT. I would really like to conduct a hands on first aid class to better prepare our club members and their families to deal with "common" first aid situations that can arise wile out enjoying our sport . It will go over cuts, strains, sprains , bee/ insect stings and broken bones. This will be a non certified class and more of a what NOT TO DO informative class.

Just letting everyone know that we are doing a FREE, CLUB SPONSORED safety day at RAUSCH on Oct. 25 th. I highly encourage all the newer members to come out and participate . This will begin at 8:00 and we will be going over basic trail safety and winching operations. then we will take a lunch break, FREE from the club: Subs, chips and soda ; D then we will hit the trails to practice our new found skills   We as a club feel that this is a very important aspect to show that as" responsible off highway drivers" we can show a positive reflection of personal in the community. Please sign up as soon as you can so that we can coordinate everything.
                                                                             Thanks Everyone

Ok everyone I really need to have an idea if I should go through with this class..... as of now I only have 3 people that have committed to learning how to save someone's life . the instructor would like to see 12 or more to be able to teach the class. other than that we would have to reschedule. Remember I tried to make it convenient for most people since I was having it AS SOON AS THE MEETING WAS OVER  PLEASE sign up on here ASAP so I know to finalize this class

I am setting up a certified CPR class to be taught directly following the OCT 12 th club meeting. If you would like to attend this class to be certified please reply so I can get an idea of how many would be interested. The class will start at approx. 1:00 and finish around 4:30. I am encouraging everyone to attend because you just never know when this VITAL training might be needed......

Well, I will say this much for those type of extinguishers Hillbilly ,I have never seen one used so not sure how well they work. Personally I recommend a dry chem ABC extinguisher for everyday use because they are a proven source for putting out most common fires , most people but the 2.5 pound models

« on: November 24, 2013, 07:59:04 pm »

Well it seems the past few days since the temps have dropped people have been burning the wood stoves, fire places a lot . Unfortunately a few of them FORGOT basic safety issues while doing it !!!! PLEASE REMEMBER to check/ clean your chimneys PRIOR to firing up these items, to avoid a VERY COSTLY/ POSSIBLY DEADLY  ISSUE. A carbon monoxide detector and a good smoke detector are invaluable, if anyone has any questions on these PLEASE ASK, I will offer the best advise that I can to you ) also once you have burnt the logs please place the the ash in a METAL CONTAINER THAT HAS A LID FAR AWAY from any COMBUSTABLE MATERIALS !!!!!  CARDBOARD BOXES ARE NOT SUITABLE TO STORE ASH IN !!!!!! Believe it or not I have seen it done (((((
