Sheilah Sweatman
It was 12 years ago today, June 29th, that Nelson Search and Rescue volunteer Sheilah Sweatman died while on a swift water response on the Goat River near Creston, B.C. Sheilah was only 29 years old at the time of her death. In her honor, we named COSAR’s 32 foot landing craft, The Sweatman.
