MID MAY MUSTER

Excellent weather, with 29 pilots registered, there were plenty of visiting spectators dropping a gold coin in the entry bucket. The wonderful kitchen crew were run off their feet all day. Huge thank you to all who took part, especially our visitors from near and far. A most wonderful day.  Cheers Geoff.

Sizzle at Bunnings

Just a few of the usual suspects who made the 27th  such a success.
Many thanks guys.

Defibrillator.

25th April some of us attended a training session for the defibrillator.
Fifteen of us were addressed by a very nice lady named Marcia who explained how to give first aid to an unconscious person.
CPR is the first thing if someone is unresponsive, she explained, and showed us how to do CPR. It's most important to give CPR all the time and have someone else get the Defibrillator if necessary, while continuing the CPR.
Here is our Defibrillator in the clubhouse, for future reference. There is a very good training video on DVD that came with the unit, see Geoff to get your hands on it.

The correct usage of the unit was explained and the fact that the defibrillator will itself talk you through the procedure was demonstrated.
Very valuable lessons learnt, I thought. I hope I can remember everything if I am ever faced with an unconscious person.
Many thanks to Marcia for her entertaining and most informative talk.
