Northstar Search & Rescue is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization that has been using K-9 teams to help find missing persons for 30 years. Come to this free program to learn how these teams search for people in natural and urban areas, under water, following disasters, and in other situations. Dogs will be present and all are certified in specific kinds of searches – and all are friendly with people, too. Part of the class will be outdoors to demonstrate how the teams find a volunteer “missing” person. This class is appropriate for all ages.
Hosted by the Friends of Lake Maria State Park.
