Edmonton Regional Search and Rescue Association was formed in 1996 in Edmonton, Alberta as a 100% volunteer, non-profit charitable organization. We will respond 24/7, 365 days a year to any search as tasked by law enforcement agencies. ERSARA trains extensively throughout the year to meet and exceed the standards set our for SAR so we can give the best response possible to a search emergency.
On average, ERSARA responds to about 20-30 searches a year, and has been involved in many high-profile cases over the years, notably Project KARE.
ERSARA's mission is To Provide Trained Volunteers for Search and Rescue, Emergency Response and Public Safety. Our members are trained extensively throughout the year to be able to respond to any search emergency, including disasters, such as the Pine Lake tornado, missing or lost people, and evidence handling. |
