Carson City Firehouse Subs assists local Search and Rescue in fundraiser
While volunteers of the Carson City Sheriff’s Search and Rescue unit are available 24-hours a day to help those in need, this Wednesday evening Firehouse Subs will be making itself available to assist the Search and Rescue unit with a fundraiser.
This Wednesday October 23 between 5:00 PM and 9:00 PM a portion of the sales from Firehouse Subs at 3150 Hwy 50 will be generously donated to the all-volunteer Carson City Sheriff’s Search and Rescue unit.
Proceeds from the event will help fund the purchase of several pieces of rope rescue gear that are coming due for replacement, provide for gear that will make rescue response quicker and safer, while also allowing for the continuing National Certification of three Rope Rescue Technicians in Calendar Year 2020.
In 2018 alone, Unit members donated a combined total of over 3,300 volunteer hours, conducted 20 rescue missions, and supported numerous other Sheriff Department support missions within Carson City as well as providing mutual aid to other Nevada communities. Tax-deductible donations are a key component in the support of Carson City Sheriff’s Search and Rescue operations.
