Ya girl is CPR & First Aid/AED certified thanks to ARC. I took a two hour in-person class plus…read moreabout a two hour online course to learn how to provide CPR, use AED and give first aid if I ever find myself needing to do any. I really think it's important that people take this, cause you'll never know when someone is gonna be in need, and you can be that person that saves someone's life. The class cost about $100 and I felt accomplished after taking the course. CPR is harder than it looks, and I'm sure if the time ever came where I needed to perform it, it would be nerve wracking.

The online teaches a lot, but if your fortunate to have a class with Mr. Darrell, he is is extra informative. He's a stern because this is a serious subject but he's also fun and funny! He's Truely a great instructor ! He even worked on Father's Day.! I feel confident I learned a lot. If I was a person with the means I would've paid $500 for his class, but I just need to note However, to charge $117 for some thing that is life-saving to the community is exuberant. A person should not have to go pulling from rent or groceries to take the course because this is a Public Service yet everyone cannot afford that. The local government and community should subsidize so that their citizens can all take this class. It would save the city money in the long run if people knew how to keep others alive in an emergency till emergency services could get there! 2 years ago I took it for $37. The excellence of , especially THaiS instructor was worth it for me but I did have to sacrifice and that shouldn't be the case to learn to save lives.. Mr. Derrell was amazing and the course was very good.!

If you're looking for a fun group to hike with that is led by an experienced knowledgeable person,…read moreNaturalist For You is your stop.

Talk about a modern day John Muir! They have hikes weekly all over the Orange County mountains and other local places, you can find them on Facebook or Meetup to get in on hikes and the best part is they do hikes from easy to difficult so whatever level you are on there are hikes for you. There are also hikes to study birds, edible plants, owling, and much more.

Since we made about 90 kits, she figured it would be best for us to deliver them to an organization that assists those in need, and she found Foothill Unity Center. Foothill Unity Center is a multi-service agency that provides services to individuals and families in need. Founded in 1980 by Josephine Anderson, the center has become a source for food, health services, and crisis assistance to thousands of low-income families in the SGV. The place is clean and spacious and the staff were friendly and gracious for our donation. It felt nice to do something good for others and give back to the community. The security guard on duty was an absolute doll - polite, friendly, and respectful. He made our day as much as we made his. They accept donations of any kind and you can drop off during business hours 8 am - 4:30 pm Mon - Fri. Donation wish list: https://foothillunitycenter.org/wish-list/ You can also volunteer https://foothillunitycenter.org/volunteer/.

Fortunately for me (and you) he's a Veteran, so we were able to get in. We couldn't stay long because we were both out passed out normal bedtimes, but the crowd here was so friendly! The bartender and her husband (the KJ) were some of the nicest folks I'd ever encountered. They even told me I was welcome to come back anytime, with or without my friend! Everyone was cheering for everyone. This was the least toxic karaoke environment I've ever seen. Anyone out there who does karaoke knows what I mean. They offered us an extremely reasonably-priced meal, I believe it was meatloaf night? We declined. My friend ordered cheetos and red wine, while I had a soda water. I belted out on 4-Non Blondes "What's Up" and we went on our way. I hope I get the opportunity to go back, as it isn't very near my normal routine. But, I can definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a kind hearted crowed, a cool bartender, and a boss KJ.

I didn't realize this was a boutique! (until I saw the name on Yelp)…read more When I parked, I noticed what a small Goodwill this was. It's in an unnoticed area with other small shops behind a gas station. The little store was so organized and so. clean. !!! Even the books were arranged by COLOR. Gawd. XD Pretty things were displayed neatly on either wall. They only had maybe 3-4 racks of clothes. They had a small selection of bags in the corner. Needless to say I left in less than 5 minutes because I didn't see anything good despite the cleanliness. If you want to donate, you have to take your car to the back of the store. They don't accept donations at the front door.

It was just an insane experience a friend of mine put together a networking event for designers, etc. and Moe came in there and was just telling everyone to get the fuck out and he snatched the microphone out of this woman's hands while she was trying to make the announcement for people to leave because he was unhappy, but the venue was professionally the event was very calm, relaxed, and everyone was happily networking. There was nothing wrong going so came in and started shouting and cursing, and snatched the microphone out of her hands, which was insane. He yelled in her face like an abusive man.

Very professional and friendly. I had emailed over a list of music to play throughout the night as a guideline and she stuck to it but also had remixed versions of some of my favorites which made it more fun. Throughout the night she remained professional (in the past I'd witness DJs at events act like fools near the end of the night. not good.) and pleasant to my guests. All my guests commented on how fab the music was, it definitely added to my event. I also had Nguyen along with Tessa deejay a corporate holiday event. Again, arrived on time and remained professional throughout the night. They were able to read the crowd (ages ranged from 30-60 yrs of age!) and kept the dance floor going - everyone happy and having fun. Tessa was also a great emcee when needed - she spoke clearly and projected! From set up to breakdown - they were fantastic! I highly recommend Blackbook Social Club for all your party/event needs!!

From Chinatown location to their old mpk location to this new mpk location. From Dentist Edward to now my favorite Dentist Kelly. Office Receptionist, Elm has been with the group since my changing to mpk old office. He's super welcoming, and efficient. He really makes the office feel like anyone's local office. I've been to other dentist offices, trying to find better deals to services before. It's difficult to find good dentist out there!! And one who cares to educate and better my dental life each time. So I've stuck with this group ever since. Dentist Kelly has empathy and understands the struggle of chronic illnesses of autoimmunity. So I trust she'll be proactive in looking out for my mouth health and such. She's such a great teacher!! She explains a lot, and helps take you through steps. She's verbal and has such a delightful cheery personality. Free parking. Lots of parking with access to new electrical vehicle charging equipment too!

I have been coming here fairly frequently ever since my daughter became a daisy Girl Scout a few years ago. Everybody who works here is very nice. They are super friendly.

I like a lot of the resources that they have available. Their selection of patches and other Girl Scout regalia is amazing. They have quite a selection. There is FREE parking out front. The store itself is located in a shopping center/strip mall. It is tucked away near a nail salon, dollar store and pet grooming place. It is amazing to see how seamlessly these women who work here are able to handle Girl Scout cookie selling season. Not only do they coordinate cookie pick ups, but they also coordinate the selling of Girl Scout cookie selling season merchandise. I love that you can get all of your selling supplies here. I really don't have a single bad thing to say about this store or anybody who works or volunteers here.
