THERE’S NO SHORTAGE OF THINGS TO DO AT THE ALBUQUERQUE INTERNATIONAL BALLOON FIESTA. ALONG WITH THE BALLOONS, YOU’LL FIND VENDORS OF ALL KINDS, FOODS TO SATISFY THE PICKIEST EATER…AND…SOME LIFE-SAVING TRAINING.
THE ALBUQUERQUE FIRE DEPARTMENT IS DOING CPR TRAINING, AND IT ONLY TAKES ONE MINUTE. THE KEY: DOING THE HANDS-ON-CPR TO THE BEAT OF THE SONG “STAYIN’ ALIVE.” THE AFD BOOTH IS AT THE NORTH END OF VENDOR ROW AND IS STAFFED DURING ALL MASS ASCENSIONS AND EVENING GLOWDEOS.
THIS PAST WEEKEND, OVER 350 ADULTS AND CHILDREN TOOK A MINUTE OF THEIR TIME TO LEARN HANDS’ON CPR WHICH CAN HELP SAVE A LIFE WHILE WAITING FOR EMERGENCY CREWS TO ARRIVE.
