Queens County Ground Search & Rescue (QCGSR) has been helping the citizens of Liverpool and Queens County since 1978. QCGSR is one of 24 member teams in Nova Scotia. There are currently 14 members on Liverpool's member team with a strong need for volunteers. All membership is 100% volunteer. Training programs are scheduled for every second week at the Liverpool location of the Ground Search and Rescue. Training includes navigational programs, map reading, boating and ground search procedures.
The responsibility for lost and missing persons in Canada rests with police forces, however police rarely have the resources required to launch an extensive search. That is where ground search and rescue volunteers come in. These volunteers provide a valuable service to Queens County and give thousands of hours of their time each year with the extensive training they require and the actual searches.
