Equipment
BCSAR maintains a cache of common equipment, vehicles, radios, and other specialty rescue gear for use by the group. Certain standard items are provided to members as they achieve specific milestones of service. All members are required to create and maintain a personal 24-hour ready pack for field operations. A sample list of the 24-hour ready pack is included in our BCSAR Application which is available for download in the right column.
Meetings
BCSAR regular meetings and training exercises are held the second Thursday of every month at 6 p.m. Meeting locations may vary so please contact us to find out where we will be meeting this month. Members are required to attend at least 6 monthly meetings per year.
