Maryland Search and Rescue is a professional Search and Rescue program in association with the
Appalachian
Search and Rescue Conference, Inc., (ASRC) based in Charlottesville,
Virginia. The ASRC represents trained searchers in
Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Ohio and West Virginia.
We provide free all-weather, wilderness lost-person and downed-aircraft search and rescue services in the mid-Atlantic region when requested by local, state or federal authorities.
Maryland Search and Rescue sponsors youth members through Boy Scout Venture Crew 616 and members join both organizations.
If you have a search emergency, contact 911! If it is deemed
necessary, SAR teams will be called.
Once on scene, members of MSAR coordinate with law
enforcement, EMS, and local volunteers to carry out the search effort. On search
tasks teams of 4-6 searchers comb through wilderness areas in search of subjects
and evidence. Once located, subjects may require medical assistance and/or
evacuation depending on the type of incident that has occurred. MSAR is prepared
for both manual "carryouts" as well as assisting with aerial helicopter-based
rescues.
