AED's for Bars on B
This year, we will be raising money to install AEDs (automated external defibrillators) in bars and restaurants along Highway B in Land O' Lakes. It can take emergency services a long time to drive to some of these locations, so having AEDs at businesses that are open late into the night can be a lifeline for many. For donation inquiries, please call (715) 547-3487 ext. 4
