Daisies will be able to meet the requirement of interacting with a first responder, and Brownies and up will be able to complete many, if not all, of the requirements for first aid badges. This is a drop-in program and is free of charge. Scouts will take home a first aid kit that they will assemble and a Medical Museum fun patch (both available while supplies last).brownie_brownie-first-aid_large
