How often is the training put on each year? I'm an ex-paramedic and am interested in volunteering, but don't move to Grand Haven until the end of June.

Thanks!

I will be at the training on the 22nd and would like to shadow the instructor because I have not taught yet. I finished the instructor training in November.
Also, I am certified to teach CPR through the AHA and can help if needed.
