LSUR joined Mid-County Fire Protection and Sunrise Beach Fire Protection for several days of training this week with Life Guard Systems.
Fantastic week getting team members certified in Blackwater Diving and Rapid Deployment.
We enjoyed getting to team up with such a great group of divers, looking forward to teaming up again for more training opportunities!
Great day spent on the water training yesterday.
Some of our newer divers and support learned the art of hurricane anchoring - a 3 anchor system to make our boats into dive platforms. We also successfully located and brought Rescue Randy home!
Training day. Learned about the 360 sonar system & how to deploy lines for swift water.
Cleaning out some old files and came across this old recruiting poster that we posted in all the KC area dive shops in 2002. It shows the old patch, which we redesigned in 2003.
Getting an early spring cleaning done on this nice afternoon.

Yesterday 8 team members responded to a call from the Jackson County Sheriff's Office to pull a vehicle out of Lone Jack Lake. Our divers were able to successfully tether the vehicle for extraction and about 3 hours after arriving on the scene extraction was complete.
