October 11, 2024 at 12:16 PMApprovedROTC standbyEmergency Medicine10/11/202411/09/2024I am writing to formally request approval for the participation of our student organization in providing first aid support at the AFJ-ROTC Commandos Competition, which will take place on November 9, 2024, at McDowell Intermediate High School. The AFJ-ROTC Commandos Competition is a physically demanding military-style athletic event featuring activities such as ropes courses, tire flipping, people carrying, and running. Last year, the responsibility for both first aid and scoring were handled by a single individual (Dr. Chludzinski), which caused delays in event results. This year, she has requested additional assistance specifically for first aid coverage. Our role will be to provide basic first aid services for event participants, such as bandaging, applying ice, and addressing minor injuries. A first aid kit, stocked with essential supplies, has already been donated for use by the club. Additionally, the AFJ-ROTC has requested support in the form of a donation of basic first aid supplies, including bandages, splints, ace wraps, and other items for use during their practices and future competitions. If club funds are available, we would like to explore the possibility of contributing to this request. Dr. Chludzinski will be present to supervise all first aid efforts, ensuring appropriate oversight throughout the event. We believe this is an excellent opportunity for students to engage with the community while gaining practical experience in providing medical support in a real-world setting.

October 2, 2024 at 7:20 PMApprovedDiwali Celebration Volunteering EventMentoring10/02/202410/23/2024Background information: Diwali, or Dipawali, is India's biggest and most important holiday of the year. The festival gets its name from the row (avali) of clay lamps (deepa) that Indians light outside their homes to symbolize the inner light that protects from spiritual darkness. This festival is as important to Hindus as the Christmas holiday is to Christians. It is celebrated over 5 days with events ranging from decorating homes, feasting, fireworks, and gifts. In celebration of Diwali, APAMSA is requesting to host a volunteer event in collaboration with the Mentoring Club. At this volunteer event, volunteers from both APAMSA and the Mentoring Club will organize and execute several activities for the children at the Erie Kids Club. The event aims to introduce the children to the rich cultural traditions of Diwali through various engaging activities. The activities for the children will be Henna art where volunteers will apply traditional Henna to the children's hands, Rangoli art where children will be guided by volunteers to decorate the blacktop with chalk to make traditional Rangoli patterns, and paper lantern crafting where volunteers will assist children in making decorative paper lanterns. APAMSA will provide all necessary supplies for this event. APAMSA and Mentoring Club volunteers will be responsible for set up and clean up at the Kids Club. A permission slip will be distributed to the children ahead of time, ensuring that parents are informed and consent to their child's participation in the activities. All participants will undergo a background check beforehand using the following links: https://epatch.pa.gov/home and https://www.compass.state.pa.us/CWIS/Public/Home No child will be left alone with a volunteer.
