SARstories is a resource for those interested in true stories by and about professional Search & Rescue personnel--both volunteer and paid--and those they help. While news stories are great, we're especially interested in firsthand accounts.
So if you have a Search & Rescue blog or website, or a personal story as the rescuer or rescued, e-mail us your link and we'll review your content for inclusion here on SARstories. Do you have a tale to tell and photos to share but no site of your own? We'll be happy to create a page for you on ours.
SARstories will be adding and updating content often--links, articles, photos, videos and other useful information--so check back often. Or subscribe to our blog, SARstories News, to receive updates.
