August 5, 2023 @ 8:00 AM 5:00 PM

NICA Approved First Aid is the assessment of and treatment given to an ill or injured person in any environment where definitive care is less than one hour away.  When NICA activities, practices or races, are held more than one hour from definitive care, then Wilderness First Aid training for L3 coaches is required.

Please bring water, snacks, and lunch with you. There will not be time to leave to go get lunch.
