Last week’s question was about helipad history. The first helipad at Loma Linda University Medical Center opened October 26, 1969, with a landing area of 54 square feet. The first patient to be brought to it was a construction worker who had been injured on a job site in the mountains near Crestline. Transported by Rialto-based Western Helicopters, he was in the emergency room within 30 minutes of the call.
The three random winners to correctly answer 1969 were Kristina Larios, Christian Rodriguez, and Rachel E. Gonzalez. E-mail pr@llu.edu to claim your prize, which must be picked up within 60 days.
Ten years later, in 1979, a major building opened on campus. Which building was that? E-mail the answer to pr@llu.edu by midnight on Tuesday, February 11, for a chance to win.
