In an urgent situation, you must react appropriately, without hesitation. React Right's straightforward, three-step approach is simple, complete and effective. It is designed to minimize options and avoid confusion, so you can provide the proper care quickly and confidently.

React Right has developed an emergency first aid response system to help first aid providers take control of any emergency situation and deliver first aid until emergency medical personnel take over.

React Right is a home study course which saves time and improves retention. The coaching portion of the program can be completed in one evening.

Crystal River, FL
Dive with the Manatees January 18-22, 2006

Crystal River is the winter home of the Floriday Manatees. During the winter months, the Manatee swim
into the warmer, fresh spring fed waters of the Crystal River area to raise their young. The Manatees are an endangered species that are protected by federal law.

Sanctuaries have been built in the shallow water within the Crystal River basin that allow the Manatee to have refuge from boats and humans. We are able to dive or snorkel outside of these areas, and the Manatees regularly swim outside of the sanctuaries in search of food. We will spend the Thursday the 5th with the Manatees, diving off of a pontoon boat. Friday we will make a leisure drift dive down the Rainbow River. This excursion is a lot of fun for divers, as well as snorkelers, due to the depth of the water that ranges from 3’ - 30’ in depth.
