#SSI SAR was tasked by SSI EOC today for a wellness check for an individual without power or heat. Despite snowy roads and steep grades, our 4x4 EV with chains was able to locate the individual and their furry friend and evacuate them to a warm, safe place. #sar #rescue #bcsara

Salt Spring #SAR was blown away by the incredibly generous support of #blowdownbrunch organizers Dan & Kathryn. They presented our group with $1000 and a certificate of appreciation for our role in the response to the windstorm. We are humbled by the donation!
