BC Search and Rescue recently posted a great reminder…

Based on recent weather events and search and rescue calls, remember:  There is NO CHARGE FOR RESCUE regardless of the reason subjects have found themselves requiring assistance!

BCSARA believes the fear of being charged for search and rescue could delay calls for help, impacting task success. Timely deployment of SAR services is crucial.

Need help? Call 9-1-1 ASAP and stay put.
