Morning Session – Personal Preparedness 101
Personal Preparedness 101 is an intensive four hour course of lecture and hands on training for people who realize that their wellbeing is their own responsibility. All the gear and gadgets in the world are no good to you without training. We also know that emergencies of all types happen when you least expect them. For this reason, our course is based on educating you about the things you need to have with you all the time and how to use them. After covering bare essentials, we will move onto the selection and use of specialized gear. Topics covered include-



· Bag selection (including organization)
· Water containers
· Water purification
· Shelter (maintaining body temperature)
· Tools
· Communications
· First Aid Kits
Course is both lecture and hands on.
· Cordage
· Fire starting
· Gear Repair
· Basic Knots
· Protective equipment
· Flashlights





Afternoon Session – Traumatic Injury Management
This intensive four hour course is intended to provide the attendee with the education and training needed to treat them or another immediately following a traumatic injury, prior to the arrival of EMS. This class is for informational purposes only and does not certify the attendee to provide medical care. Topic covered include-

· How to use Quick Clot
· How to use an Israeli Bandage

To be clear- I am hosting this at the Buck Creek Community Center, George "Mercop" Matheis Jr. of Modern Combative Systems is the instructor. Last time I hosted George there was some confusion as to what my credentials were.

 

[mercop]

I owe several of you certs and merch from the last class. Please e-mail me at mercop27@gmail.com with what I owe you and it will go right out. Please include your addy.

Sorry I have not been around, had some personal issues over the summer and have spent most of it bouncing at a popular night club in Baltimore. I hope to see old and new faces in OCT.- George

Last time I hosted George there was some confusion as to what my credentials were.

I remember that.
<sample snotty remarks to make you feel right at home> "Who are you, and what qualifies you to host this course?!"
"And just what are your "credentials", young man?!"

<sample response not posted>"My credentials are +P+, you ****in' jerk."


Course description looks very worthwhile. Financial hammerblows on all sides now, so not sure if I'll be able to join you.

Best regards to you and your family.

... bouncing at a popular night club in Baltimore.

Sounds exciting.

For those who aren't familiar- Buck Creek is right on the outskirts of Lafayette. You can pretty much just think of the location of this class as being in Lafayette.

I'm suppose to have a wedding to go to that day but seeing if I can get out of it...

 

[mercop]

I am sure you will do your best

I will write you a pass Matt.

I am really excited for this class. To me it makes no sense not to seek out this kind of training.

I would be there, but I have a prior commitment that weekend. I will RO'ing at the Indiana SS production revolver match. It's too bad that there aren't 2 weekends per week. LOL

It should work out. I agree, gives much needed knowledge and practice with that stuff. Prefect selection for where I think we are at!

I was hoping to be the objection.

Recruited one for the Preparedness 101 portion today. Should be contacting you George.

 

[mercop]

Sounds good, I have packed a lot into that four hours.

 

[schapm]

I am actively recruiting more participants from outside this forum. Remember space is limited so if you're on the fence get off it. This training is a must for anyone who admits that people sometimes get injured. If you think carrying a cop is heavy try lugging an ambulance around.

 

[ColdSteel223]

Payment sent. Gonna be fun!

 

[mercop]

Guys, I am gonna cut registration off on 01OCT12 so I can make my travel arrangements. If you call the office at 717-889-1753 you will speak to Lisa (AKA She Who Must be Obeyed). Give us a call so we can put you on the list and then just drop a check or MO in the mail or pay with PP to MCS521@gmail.com.

Sorry I have not been around. I had to attend three funerals last week. Two for police I worked with. So we are a little behind.- George

 

[bwframe]

Please put me on the list. I'll take care of the financials next week.
