It's a well-known fact that rescues get all the attention. But when it comes to how TCSAR volunteers spend the majority of their time, it's all about training. And more training. And more training.
TCSAR volunteers train at least twice a month, and even more when it involves helicopter operations. Last year, the volunteers spent a collective 10,842 hours on training, with 6,195 hours on rescues. Suffice to say it's a huge time commitment — but absolutely necessary for the volunteers to be Rescue Ready.
