First Aid Expertsbabies around the Bay Area need your help! 2011 marks the 42 nd annual March for Babies
walk-‐a-‐thon fundraiser event. March for Babies is a family oriented and highly attended event with more
than 3,000 participants expected to walk in San Francisco, and over 6,000 walkers in the Bay Area!
Volunteers are at the heart of all March of Dimes activities, and March for Babies could not happen without
the dedication and support from people like you!
We are looking for up to 2 Certified EMTs and/or Registered nurses to run the First Aid Tent in Fort Mason
