CALGARY SEARCH AND RESCUE ASSOCIATION

The Calgary Search and Rescue Association (CalSARA) was established two years ago with the mandate of providing trained personnel capable of assisting local agencies in all aspects of search and rescue for missing and/or injured subjects. In addition, CalSARA has also provided trained volunteers for many community events .

CalSARA is a volunteer, non-profit, registered charity whose very existence is dependent upon ordinary citizens from all walks of life making a commitment to join and be trained in this capacity. Additionally, we depend heavily on private and corporate sponsorship to allow us to continue to provide first rate service.
