Pennfield Teen CERT

Teen CERT helped with the Special Olympics event at Ken Nottke’s bowl on Wed. March 26th.  We arrived early for setup, and stayed late for cleanup.  The group displayed the usual professionalism and maturity we expect and I am extremely proud of them.  Keep up the good work, more events are coming in the next few weeks.

Congratulations to the Pennfield community and anyone else who helped by giving blood at Pennfield’s latest blood drive.  Our goal was 61 pints and we hit 108% of that goal.  You do the math and figure out what we actually donated.  Thanks to the Teen CERT gang that helped with the event.  Good job kids, I am proud of you!

Having your medical history and general health info easily available for the medical profession is a good thing to practice.  This is especially true if you have kids, or are taking care of a parent or grandparent.  This site explains why and provides links for easy forms to fill out.
