>Atlantians,
> 
>On Sunday the 28th at Pennsic War, your Chirurgeonate members will be primarily staffing Chirurgeons’ Point and any necessary field operations.  
>You are invited to come by and see what Chirurgeons’ (First-Aid) Point is all about, meet your Chirurgeonate members and other Chirurgeons from around the Society, and learn more about the Chirurgeonate in general.
> 
>Pennsic is a unique operation, blending involvement of Chirurgeons, Chirurgeons-In-Training, Non-Medical Volunteers, EMS – EMTs & Paramedics, and Emergency Physicians to care for the acute needs of the 10, 000+ population of this event. 
> 
>Non-Medical Volunteer help would be appreciated on this day and throughout the war, helping with administrative and support tasks.  
> 
> 
>From the July Acorn:
> 
>Three of your Mentor Chirurgeons including myself will be serving as Deputy Chirurgeon-in-Charge at Pennsic. A number of our Mentors, Chirurgeons and Chirurgeons-in-Training will be serving the Pennsic Chirurgeonate in some form. This is a great opportunity for anyone interested in the Chirurgeonate to come learn more, begin your CIT process or assist as non-medical volunteers. 
> 
>For those interested in starting your CIT, you will need to present your current/valid: photo ID, membership, First-Aid or higher certification/license, and Adult CPR or more extensive certification. A photocopy of all documents in advance is helpful, but not required. You will need to fill out a CIT application found at http://sca.org/officers/chirurgeon/pdf/CiTApp-07.pdf  Forms will be available at Chirurgeons/First-Aid Point. You should read the Chirurgeons Handbook found at http://sca.org/officers/chirurgeon/pdf/ChirurgeonsHandbook2007.pdf in advance for understanding and rules familiarization. You also need to review Atlantian Chirurgeonate Policy found at http://law.atlantia.sca.org/Policy.html#8
> 
>For those that are interested, but lack current First-Aid or CPR training, courses will be available at Pennsic taught by Chirurgeon instructors. Upon completion and with the other required credentials, you may submit your CIT paperwork and get started at that time. Consult the A&S schedule for class details. 
> 
>Former Chirurgeons are welcome to return to involvement! You would need current credentials; review the current guidance documents and spend at least a shift as a CIT and have a situational review conducted by myself or our Deputy KC. The SR can be conducted in advance. 
> 
>Atlantian Chirurgeons that have registered with Chirurgeon/First-Aid Point will have at-large authority to function at war. Please note that inside the battlefield fighting perimeter may be restricted to EMS only response at certain times for safety control reasons. 
> 
>Please see the Pennsic Website or Participant Book for more information about Chirurgeons/First-Aid Point and the acute-care ambulatory services provided in conjunction with EMS and ER Physicians at no charge. EMS is on-site with immediate transport capability 24/7.   The Pennsic Chirurgeonate Web Page is http://pennsicwp.org/departments/first-aid-point/
> 
>Every camp is encouraged to be prepared with a first-aid kit, sunscreen, and drinking water. Every camper should be prepared with whatever is necessary to manage chronic medical conditions and exacerbations. Discuss any seasonal/regional environmental concerns with your health care provider before coming to war.
