Every day, we hear on the news about teens fighting, stealing, getting into drugs or worse. You rarely hear about the 'good' kids making a positive difference in the world.
I'm here to tell you how lucky I am to work with young adults that really do care. I'm a proud Post Leader of the
Central Bucks Ambulance Explorer Post 125. Along with 5 other adult leaders, we have over 15 kids ranging in age from 14-21 interested in Emergency Medical Services along with other Public Safety topics.
Every Wednesday evening, they give of their time to learn patient assessments, how to deal with trauma, mass casualty incidents and more. We invite guest speakers and go on trips. And as a branch of the boy scouts, we provide first aid standbys for their events.
I say 'my kids' because I feel like a very proud parent when I talk about them. Many have received awards from the scouts as well as the community. They are
dedicated, smart and respectful. So if you need a boost in your teen barometer, visit us and see for yourself!
In fact, they also want to help out their community and will be building an above ground garden. The vegetables they grow will be donated to the United Way. We sure could use your help with building materials, seeds and plants. If you're able to donate in any way, please feel free to
contact me.
And if you're not doing anything on a Wednesday night, come and join us.
Really!!!Pass this on...
