CATALINA FOOTHILLS, Ariz. — Under the Craycroft Bridge, the Southern Arizona Rescue Association team practices ascending and rappeling. It's one of the many trainings that the team conducts during the year.
For one of the teammembers Sarah Truebe, it was important to join SARA and learn the life saving skills. When she was leading a caving trip during her time in grad school, one of her friends fell about 15 feet. From there, she knew she wanted to learn the skills to help. "I realized I had no idea what to do," she said."So I got some medical training. Honestly all of the training that I've gotten from SARA has helped me be better when I'm outdoors recreating.""We help with any rescue that we are called to help with," she said."So if the Pima County Sheriff's Office says they need help, then we go to help.
SARA recruits during the summer. Their next training is on July 11th at the Sabino Canyon Overflow Parking Lot at 7pm.Tina Giuliano is a reporter for KGUN 9.
