Members of #CoqSAR are heading to #Merritt to support Nicola Valley #SAR and @BCSARAssoc teams from across BC on a major search for a missing cowboy. We have sent Searchers, Search Manager, portable repeaters, radio and GPS equip to assist #SAR efforts. https://t.co/OhV1q7YVDD

Congratulations! Another shining example of what stable predictable funding has done for the GSAR community over the past 3 years. We look forward to a future funding announcement for the 80 recognized #BCSAR GSAR groups

Headed out to visit some new @BCSARAssoc volunteers with @LadysmithSar who are on the overnight part of their @JIBC_EMD training. Looks like they may have had a frosty night?! #bcsar #rescue #Ladysmith

Show your furry friends some extra love by putting a pet grab-and-go bag under the tree this year... or maybe on a high shelf so they don't get into the treats... https://t.co/44YgHyHv6d #GivetheGiftofPreparedness

@BobChambers20 @NEWS1130 Hi Bob, respectfully we disagree. Charging for #rescue will have a negative impact on the outcomes of our missions. Our goal is to save lives; sustainable funding and #SAR prevention is the key to that! https://t.co/plhxSTDCLF #NoChargeForRescue @BC__AS #AdventureSmart

For day 3 of @SurreyRescue's 12 Days of #sarprevention, we have a signalling device.

When a #SAR team is out looking for you, using a whistle helps us find you from much further away. A signalling mirror works well for locating you from an aircraft

@hopesar1 Great work.

[Hope Search & Rescue @hopesar1]

#HSAR was called out last night for a subj who was trapped in a semi after it had rolled down an embankment on #Hwy3. The team was able to extricate & free the driver who was then passed over to #BCAS.
