Thousand Islands Ground Search and Rescue Team hasn't added a story.
WE NEED YOUR HELP!!
Thousand Islands Ground Search and Rescue (TIGSAR) is a
Volunteer SAR team. This team operates under the Ontario Search and
Rescue Volunteer Association (OSARVA). OSARVA is the Governing body
for volunteer search and rescue teams within the Province of Ontario.
They are the liaison between the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP),
National Search and Rescue Secretariat (NSS), Emergency Management
Ontario (EMO) and the Volunteer SAR teams. OSARVA is also responsible
for the instruction and certification of the "Basic
Searcher" status as initiated and mandated by the OPP.
Team members train in the classroom and conduct field practical
exercises on a regular basis. The safety of others and our team
members is essential. Our goal is to offer a team equipped and ready
respond when called upon to aid the local authorities in our
community. We also offer programs for school children and adults
called Hug-a-Tree and Adventure Smart.
In order to complete this task there is important equipment
needed, to outfit our team and ensure our operational readiness.
Radios and GPS, are a couple of pieces of essential equipment, as well
as the appropriate insurance to cover our team. In that we are a
volunteer organization, we are looking for sponsorship and support
from businesses/organizations in our community so that we can best be
prepared to step forward in a time of need.
We currently have eighteen members on our team with new members
coming on board regularly. We also offer programs for school children
and adults called Hug-a-Tree, Adventure Smart, and Paddle Smart. We
would be happy to come and speak to your group or school, just contact
us for more information!!
If you are able, your financial assistance would be put to
excellent use and would be extremely appreciated.
Thank you for your time and consideration of this
matter.
Sincerely, Kevin Gill TIGSAR President, Sherri Dufton
TIGSAR Treasurer, Catherine Gill TIGSAR Secretary, And The TIGSAR Team
