Webelos Adventure: First Responder

Last night, both the Webelos 1 and Webelos 2 dens began working on the First Responder Adventure.  This is a Webelos 1 Required Adventure and an Elective for Webelos 2 Scouts.

The Adventure is designed to provide Webelos Scouts wiht an introduction to the skills and responsibilities of a first-responder. Activities will cover essential personal safety and first-aid skills.

Some of the takeaways for this adventure are:

  • Essential first-aid skills
  • Essential personal safety skills
  • Understanding of the role of the first responder in the local community
  • A Scout is brave, courteous

The adventure requirements are listed in page 58 of the Webelos handbook and all requirements were touched on. We even had one of our scout parents who is a first responder come in and pay the boys a visit. With a red cross instructor coming out in February to give the scouts an opportunity to become certified in First Aid, CPR, and AED, we intentionally chose not to go too deep into this Adventure.
