Great work yesterday by the entire team in the rescue of 3 subjects and their dog lost in the Postill Lake area for 25 hours. #kelowna #bcsar

A few of our happy members after our Wednesday night search for a missing senior. #bcsar

Tonight’s training involved an urban search for a subject with dementia. We are frequently tasked out for this type of search which carries a unique set of challenges ranging from lost person behaviour to subject care. Thank you to Theresa, our volunteer subject, for helping create a very real scenario. #bcsar

Last week COSAR hit the lake and worked on water rescue techniques. Always a great training session but even better when it’s +30c! #bcsar #kelowna

COSAR was called out today to support Kelowna Fire Department and B.C. Ambulance Service in the rescue of an injured mountain biker on Crawford Trails. The subject was packaged and extracted on KFDs Gator. A helicopter was on standby but paramedics decided that extraction via the gator was the best option. #bcsar #kelowna

Mother Nature decided to bust out a beautiful sunset for our Thursday night training! #bcsar #kelowna #rdco #westkelowna

Yesterday was a busy day. We were called out in the morning to assist B.C. Ambulance with an injured dirt biker. The paramedics did an awesome job extracting the subject before we arrived. At 8:40pm we were then called out to help an injured mountain biker at Smith Creek. We want to say a huge thank you to the several mountain bikers that were in the area and stayed with the subject until we arrived and then helped with extraction. #mtbco #bcsar #kelowna #westkelowna #bcas

Tuesday morning, COSAR and PENSAR was called out to support the RCMP in Glenrosa for the search of a missing subject. He was located safe that evening by RCMP. #greatending #bcsar

Several COSAR members joined members from a number of other teams today for SARNIVAL. Held in Summerland, and organized by Penticton Search and Rescue, this annual event provides search and rescue volunteers a chance to hone their skills and get to know their counterparts from other teams. We had so much fun that our media team forgot to take pictures until the very end of the event! Thank you to everyone involved in organizing this great event!

Tonight, COSAR was called out to support the Kelowna Fire Department’s rope team with a high angle rope rescue in Canyon Falls. #kelowna #kelownafiredepartment #bcsar
