Theme: "Fire and Fall Protection, With CFD"
Description: Have you ever had a shore excursion cut short because you tripped and fell? Have you had to cut short a long awaited boat trip, due to tripping and landing wrong? For most of us, recovery is long and painful and the affects it has on our ability to function onboard. For us boaters, fire has the highest potential for a devastating outcome. An onboard fire in a confined space with limited fire-fighting equipment and egress options is something that must be prevented rather than fought. Please join us on Tuesday, Feb 4, 2025 at for the Calgary Chapter Club Night, as Alex Kwan, Community Safety Officer, Calgary Fire Department will be speaking to us about Fire and Fall Prevention, alert devices (CO alarms, smoke detectors, etc.) as well as escape planning, strategies and other considerations. For those unable to attend in person, a Zoom link is provided.
Eats: Pizza $5 ?
Drinks: Cash bar
Agenda: 'Formal' meeting commences at 1900 (7 PM), Mountain Time.
