Ririe Dive October 2008- with Channel 6

Last October the dive team went and did a dive in Ririe Resevoir with Brenda Baumgartner from Channel 6 joining us! Brenda was able to get in and dive with the members of the unit and she was also able to try out our new equipment. The new equipment was purchased through a grant that our dive team leader worked extremely hard to get. The new equipment will allow the diver in the water to be able to talk to the rope handler on the shore. This will make every dive safer for our members.

March of 2008 Search and Rescue responded to the Wolverine Area for a teenage girl who was involved in a sledding accident. We took our new snowmachines and congregated at the base of wolverine. The victim was transported out and suffered from bumbs,scrapes and i believe some broken bones.
