Kudos to the Kansas City Sports Commission and everyone who competed in today's "Triathlon turned Duathlon" event! While it was disappointing that the swimming portion of the race was eliminated, Lee's Summit Underwater Rescue appreciates the prioritization of safety during inclement weather. Here's hoping for sunshine in 2022!
On this International Women's Day, LSUR would like to thank present and past women who have dedicated their time, experience, and commitment to the team and Public Safety Diving.

How you spend your Saturday vs How we spend ours: Chainsaws are out, cutting through 5+ inches of ice for a vehicle recovery.
Extended cold weather in our area is freezing many local ponds, but most aren’t safe to walk on yet. Fox 4 News interviewed LSUR’s Chief Brian Meinershagen tonight about the risks of falling through thin ice. Please be safe!![]()
