Superior Search and Rescue

In July, our team came together for a classroom training led by Jenna, focused on essential navigation skills. We covered compass functions, map reading, and how to properly orient yourself in the field. The training also explored how to interpret terrain using contour lines and map features.

Following the presentation, team members paired up for hands-on practice, working alongside experienced teammates to apply what they learned in real-time scenarios.

A huge thank you to Jenna for leading another impactful and informative training that strengthens our team’s readiness in the field!

No shortcuts to certification!

K9 Dolly, Harlow, and Paavo have officially kicked training into high gear, adding extra sessions each week as they prepare for their upcoming certification tests. That means twice the training, twice the problem-solving, and plenty of muddy paws along the way.

Every search, every challenge, and every reward brings these teams one step closer to being mission ready. We're proud of the hard work our handlers and K9s are putting in.

Our recent all-team training focused on Basic Life Support (BLS), CPR, and AED certification through the American Heart Association.

As search and rescue volunteers, being prepared for emergencies goes beyond search skills. These lifesaving techniques help ensure our members are ready to respond when every second matters.

Thank you to Isaac and Wes for leading this important training and helping our team build the knowledge and confidence needed to serve our community and one another.
