According to the American Heart Association, immediate CPR can double or even triple a victim’s chance of survival. Learn how to mend a broken heart this Valentine’s Day with San Carlos Park Fire District.

A Blue Mass is celebrated in the Catholic Church for those employed in the public safety field. The color blue relates to the blue uniforms predominately used by these services. The mass honors those who have fallen in the line of duty and those currently serving, and gives the community an opportunity to show gratitude for those who serve so courageously, as well as their families, who risk so much so others can live safely.  The first Blue Mass was held in Washington, DC in 1934 at St. Patrick’s Catholic Church.
