Creston Valley Search & Rescue is an entirely not-for-profit volunteer lead organisation aiming to provide an important life-saving service to the public, 365 days a year, 24 hours a day.
We rely on funding from many sources, such as BCSARA and the provincial government, but most importantly, our community.
Without the support of the community, we would not be able to provide this essential and life-saving service to the Creston Valley and surrounding area.
