SAR Day 3: regular training

Tuesday is the team’s regular training day.

This evening was equipment familiarization, consisting of small engines (boat motors, chainsaws), Argo driving, swiftwater trailer familiarization, radio communications (including portable repeater setup), and various other kits including the advanced base cap kit (my favourite). We had all of our vehicles out and ran through most of the kits.

Several members of the team attended a Hug-A-Tree presentation for a troop of Girl Guides at a local school.
