Hello new recruit! First lets go over the Basics... Search and Rescue (SAR) involves locating and evacuating persons who are trapped, lost and/or injured. MSAR specializes in wilderness SAR, however we conduct our search and rescue activities in areas ranging from cities to rugged and less-populated outdoor areas. Becoming a Member MSAR is run similarly to a Boy or Girl Scout troop. It is run by the youth-members who are elected or appointed to various offices. The adults and advisors of the program are there to provide transportation, guidance, supervision and serve as a resource in meetings, trips, and SAR missions. There are adult counterparts for each of the youth positions. They are also part of the Crew Committee that is responsible for oversight of the program.
Due to the nature of our work as well as our trainings and trips, there is a lot of gear required of our members. A list of places to acquire your gear Questions? check out our FAQs section or Email me! |
