[philmont] Wilderness First Aid IS REQUIRED in 2008 and beyond

Now is the time to get your council's health and safety committee busy in
working with the American Red Cross to get WFA courses in your area. If there
are scouters in your council, who are willing to be certified as ARC WFA
instructors, you can get a much better rate then the going price for the
training. Our Venturing Crew contacted SOLO and sponsored WFA courses in our area
before our local ARC had qualified instructors. We were able to negotiate a
price with SOLO since we were the sponsoring organization. If BSA shows the
ARC that there is a demand for this courses, they will add them to their
curriculum.
