LAHARPE — Joe Stotler is ready to teach some valuable life-saving skills.
And it’s all for free.
The LaHarpe Police Chief is offering a free CPR and first aid course 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 10, at LaHarpe City Hall.
Students will learn proper CPR for adults, children and infants, as well as the correct way to use an automated external defibrillator (AED) in case of a cardiac event.
An AED, if used correctly, significantly improves the chances of survival, Stotler noted.
A free lunch will be provided during the day.
Upon completion, students will have earned CPR certification.
Such classes typically cost $75 or more, but are available free of charge, courtesy of a Health and Wellness grant, Stotler said.
To register, call (620) 496-2241.
