Lesser Slave Lake SAR will be hosting the 2017 SAR Alberta AGM, SAR
workshops, provincial scale mock search and Emergency Exercise.  For a
special treat, a TV film crew may be filming participants to be in the
reality TV show Hellfire Heroes with the potential of airing on the
Discovery Network.

Friday will be the Emergency Exercise put on by our 27 protective services
agencies which will morph into a provincial scale mock search =E2=80=93 com=
pleting
just before supper time on Saturday.  Friday you will have the opportunity
to take part in various training activities while the Emergency Exercise is
going on, Saturday will be the Provincial Mock Search and Sunday will be
the Annual General meeting of the Alberta Search and Rescue Association.

We are working on a great line up of valuable workshops for Friday.  If you
have any specific requests, you can send them to Michael Kary at
training@saralberta.ca and we will see if we can accommodate.

As part of the Friday evening / Saturday morning training, there is the
opportunity for a unique live outdoor overnight workshop.  Put your  24 or
72 hour pack to the test by using it to spend Friday night outdoors in the
wilderness.  If we have interest, we would like to send a couple of teams
in by foot to a remote location to overnight and stage some
searching/rescue for Saturday morning.  Please let us know if you would be
interested in participating in this unique opportunity.

Saturday=E2=80=99s mock search will be a large scale mock with support from=
 Multi
Protective Agencies such as Agriculture and Forestry (formerly ESRD), RCMP,
fire, ambulance, municipalities, Alberta Health, bylaw enforcement, Highway
Patrol, and several more!  Slave Lake has the ability to set up almost any
type of scenario to test your team=E2=80=99s special training.  We will hav=
e
opportunities for ground searching, ATV/UTV, Dog rescue, ice / swift water
rescue, technical rescue, etc.  If you are part of a special team,
including the ones just listed and any others, and you would like to see
some part of the mock designed around using your special team=E2=80=99s tal=
ents,
please let us know so that we can incorporate it into part of the mock
search.  Some examples of additional interest we are thinking of is
equestrian search teams, mountain bike search teams, tracking teams, drone
search teams, CASARA, etc.  If we know you are interested in attending and
bringing your animals or special equipment, then we will do our best to set
something up for you.  If there are any others that we have missed and you
are part of and you would like to see an activity based around it, please
let us know.  If you are interested in any of the special team=E2=80=99s
opportunities, please let us know as soon as possible so that we can build
it in.  As we all know, the end of April will be here before we know it.

Slave Lake is a town of 6500 with full amenities 250 km northwest of
Edmonton on Highway 2 / Highway 44. We are uniquely located beside the
largest road accessible lake wholly within Alberta, with some of the finest
beaches in the province. We are in boreal forest on the edge of the
foothills.  We have the largest active sand dune accessible by road in
Alberta.  We are blessed with a bounty of nature with a touch of urban
amenities including the big box stores of Walmart, Canadian Tire and our
beloved Tim Hortons, and of course all of our smaller local stores and
shops.

We recognize Slave Lake is a long way to travel from the bigger population
centers and SAR events and commitments often take us away from family.
There is potential for family activities and things to do and see in our
area. Please let us know if blending some family experiences in would help
your attendance.

More information will be released as it is available.

*Make sure you mark your calendars and plan to attend this first ever
combination of events in Slave Lake April 28 =E2=80=93 30, 2017!  Hope to s=
ee you
all there!*

Please send all enquiries, interest and suggestions etc via email to
sar@slavelake.ca.

Thanks,

Jim Meldrum
