Our group consists of approximately 40 individuals, from assorted backgrounds including, but not limited to: Education, Farming, Forestry, Healthcare, and Information Technology. One thing all of our volunteers have in common is a love and respect of the outdoors, and a desire to give back to the community.
SAR volunteers come from all walks of life, and most have day jobs. All our members are certified in ground search and rescue techniques as well as first aid. We train weekly and also run extended exercises on a monthly basis. Our members can be called upon to respond to official requests for assistance around-the-clock, 365 days a year, in all weather conditions.
