Changes in BYC's CalendarFrom: mbdunn(at)wavecable.com Sent: Monday, March 05, 2007 9:11 AM Subject: Corrections needed to 2007 BYC Calendar pages Everyone, Please correct the published April 2007 Calendar to change the dates of Easter and the BYC Kids Easter party. It appears that the Excel Spreadsheet's "Calendar" feature did NOT properly include the Easter Holiday this year. Corrected dates for the Easter 2007 events are as follows: Easter Sunday occurs on April 8th (not the 15th), so the BYC Kids Easter Party will be held on April 7th instead of April 14th. Also, please correct the March through May and the September through December 2007 pages as follows: The Skipperette Board Meetings on each of the above months will occur on the Third TUESDAY at 1000, NOT on the Third Wednesday as shown. Corrected dates for the 2008 Calendar pages are as follows: The January 2008 Calendar should show the BYC Cruise In to Brownsville on the 5th and 6th, NOT on the 19th and 20th The February 2008 Calendar shows the BYC Crab Feed on both the 2nd and 3rd. Please correct it to Feb 2nd only. The BYC Calendar for March 2008 does show Easter on March 23rd. However, please add the "BYC Kids Easter Party" on March 22nd as a correction. The August 2008 Calendar should show the Grand XIV Officers Cruise In to BYC for three days, August 10th through 12th. Not sure at this date if the Skipperette Board Meetings in 2008 will be on Tuesdays or Wednesdays. Need to hear back from the Skipperettes. Thank you, Mike Dunn |

Members are reminded that
BYC has presently two AEDs (Automatic External Defibrillators):
Other Resuscitation Websites:
The survival rate has increased to 46 percent from 33 percent during the
years 2002 through 2004 — an all-time high.[...]
The new procedure emphasizes more cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
combined with the electric shocks given to restore the heart to its normal
rhythm. Before 2005, medics applied shocks as many as three times before
giving any CPR, compressing the chest and breathing air into the lungs.
Now the procedure is to give one shock followed quickly by two minutes of
CPR, then repeat.....

News and Events22 BYC Members graduate from
MEDIC First Aid Training
Program
18 November 2006: 22 BYC Members successfully completed the
"Basic Plus"
class of the MEDIC First Aid Training Programs. The class included
training in CPR, the use of AEDs (Defibrillators) and "First Aid for
Adults". The excellent 6-hour class was conducted by Eric Moore (with
Assistant)
from the Mason County Fire District #5 and organized by our very own Paul
Smith (who also happens to be the spouse of BYC Surgeon Betty Smith).
All BYC members intending to have an accident or heart attack on BYC's
premises in the near future are advised to find out who these 22 members
are, since they will not wear big red crosses on their foreheads.
Alternatively, other members may want to persuade Paul to organize this
most useful event
again or are encouraged to take a similar class elsewhere or to
visit appropriate Web pages on the Internet.
