The Eagle Valley Rescue Society could use some helping hands.
Rescue society unit chief Linda Schroeder says a good number of the volunteer crew have headed north for work, leaving the society short-handed to face the winter.
“We’re not left with too many people and it’s going to be a tough winter for us. We’re hoping to get more volunteers to come out,” says Schroeder.
Though the work can be challenging, the rewards can be enormous.
All volunteers receive thorough training through the society, which meets at 7:30 p.m. Thursdays at the Sicamous fire hall.
Anyone interested is welcome to stop by.
