On Friday, May 11th, a presentation for the media was held to bring public
awareness on the creation of the first Champaign County Search and Rescue Team. Champaign County Sheriff Dan Walsh and Champaign County Emergency
Management Agency Director John Carlson have joined their respective agencies
together to establish a county wide Search and Rescue Team. The end goal is to
train teams of volunteers to be at the ready to perform search and rescue of
persons, assist in the recovery of bodies, assist Law Enforcement with evidence
recovery, support disaster area operations, and promote safety. This Search and Rescue Team will be units of County government
cooperating with citizens to establish a service that benefits taxpayers at
very little cost.
