The Franklin Fire Department is offering free CPR classes every Saturday in February in honor of American Heart Month.
The classes are from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at Franklin City Hall Training Room, and participants will learn adult, child and infant CPR, how to use an automated external defibrillator (AED) and how to relieve choking.
Franklin firefighters who are paramedics and American Heart Association CPR instructors are teaching the classes.
They are recommended for anyone who is 12 years and older — it is not for certification, just for anyone wanting to learn CPR skills.
Registration is available online.

People are going without food. Legislators call out Tennessee for SNAP backlog.
“Local journalism is important – case and point Alexandra Koehn’s persistent work to shine a light on the massive backlog of SNAP benefit applications. Lawmakers took notice and started asking questions. The problem isn’t solved yet, and we’re still asking questions. I hope lawmakers are too.”
