Living Springs- LandSar

Source purpose: To motivate people to join Search and Rescue as a volunteer.
Critical literacy question: What do they do?
Date: 28 May 2021

So at Camp, we met up with the other Project K Group they were a mix between Shirley & Linwood, but we met up with them in the morning and spent the whole night with them to get to know them, all of us got along pretty well we talked, laughed, joked and smiled a lot while we were hanging out with the Community Group.


But after that, we went for a night walk but when we were walking we got a surprise that we were walking to a spot with you have a rope and you can either go blindfolded or go normally ( either way you couldn't see ) but I chose to go blindfolded 


Groups go separated into 10 people in each, so 10 people head off then we wait for them to go and then another ten gets to go, but we didn't realize how fast we were going so we had to wait because the girl in front wanted to go fast, we waited for then to go and get to the top while we were just chilling in the bottom waiting until they called and said that they were at the top, so and soon as we went to walk the girl in front slipped but I was luckily enough to be standing right there to be able to save her, she wanted me to stay close to her just in case she fell again ( and there were more times she slipped ) but she was really thankful when we got up to the top.


So during the 3 Day Camp at Living Springs, we had some people come to the Camp Ground and teach us what to do if we ever got lost, stranded, or hurt in the middle of nowhere, There were 3 guys there teaching us all different things that they do for LandSAR.


I forgot all of their names but this is what they do for their job.

Guy #1 ~ Uses his dog to trace down people that are lost, have gone missing, or have stolen someone.

Guy #2 ~ Uses a no-legged stretcher and carries people that have badly injured themselves and can't walk or paralyzed people.

Guy #3 ~ Is a tracker he tracks people that have tried to hide and run from them after they have done something bad and try to run away, but he tracks the footprints that he had got given with fresh and old track marks.
