Does anyone have any good ideas for a party for a 30yr old that went to school and became certified EMT?

Question

I am wanting to throw an appropriate type of family/friend style party for a female friend that has just completed an EMT course. She is 30 yrs old and has suffered ADD for most of her life and wasnt diagnosed or medicated until 7months ago, which made setting and completing goals impossible for her. Until now, this is the first acomplishment shes been able to reach. Quiting things almost as soon as they started was normal for her before the medication. This is soo much more for her than just a certification, this is the beginning of a way of life for her. Able to set and reach goals in life instead of never being able to go any farther than wanting goals. I want to celebrate this victory with my friend amongst people who also have seen her struggle and this new person evolve. Do you think this sort of gathering is appropriate? and what about a cookout style party playing horseshoes, washers, cornhole... Eating, socializing, cake and gifts. I'm open for other ideas/comments

Answer 1

I would go for the cookout style party because that is what most firefighters / emt's in this area would do. Also, if you can get the fire dept to come by....you have to hose her down with the fire hose. Its an initiation thing, if you don't do it somebody will....good luck and tell her congrats.

Answer 2

Get charcoal, a grill, meat, and plenty of beer...That's how me and all my medic/EMT buddies do it.
Most medics won't admit it because a lot view themselves as superior to EMTs, but most of us thought getting certified as an EMT was quite an accomplishment...especially the firefighters who had to takes the tests many times in order to pass (just joking...I love firefighters...when my house is on fire).

And...don't hose her down...unless she actually got a job with the fire department...I would be pissed..the firefighters would be putting out a fire at their firehouse if that happened to me.

All your ideas sound great! I think you should order an ambulance cake for her; she'd probably get a kick out of it. If you're a good baker, you can google for a recipe and actually make it yourself.

You sound like a good friend. I hope you have a great party!
