Central Fraser Valley Search & Rescue Society

Formed in 1978, CFVSAR is comprised of over 25 unpaid professionals who have each undergone extensive mandatory Search and Rescue training. The Central Fraser Valley stretches from the west border of Chilliwack to the east border of Surrey, British Columbia Canada. Whether it be inland water and rivers, mountain terrain, high-angle rope, or urban rescue, our team of dedicated members are on-call 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. We are a resource for agencies such as the RCMP, Emergency Management BC, and the Fire Department. Our members are trained in a variety of specialties, from rope rescue, swift water / flood rescue, avalanche response, and public education.
