All present and correct

The team are still catching up on their blog, now that Christmas has passed its time to post a quick photo about the Christmas Presents. We managed to get a photo of Graeme with his presents, he'd already got a bike and a skateboard but was really hoping his last present was a Canoe so that he could join the Water Section.
Graeme was more than ready to open his last present.

    Winter Wonderland

    As snow covered the country Mountain Rescue teams have been ready to support the Police and Ambulance services in accessing remote and difficult locations. Many teams have attended callouts to stranded motorists, or walkers lost in the white out. The team are very proud of their bigger counterparts and have been doing some patrolling of their own...

      Another Post

      The team have all been very good and written thank you letters for the gifts they received this Christmas. Christmas is a very busy time of year for the Mountain Rescue Volunteers as they juggle priorities of family and friends with being on call. Peter even remembered to send a letter to Father Christmas thanking him for the presents, fortunately Sarah was on hand to grab this snap. (Peter doesn't like having his photo taken)

        The ADVENTures continue

        It has been a busy time of year for the team with several callouts and preparations for Christmas. Now its time to catch up on our blog! Remember, like the real Mountain Rescue Teams we remain on call and ready to help those in need Three Hundred and Sixty Five days of the year. Our first Christmas memory is from opening the advent calendar, when Robin was very pleased to find a new team member waiting behind the door of day 16.

        The boys were very happy with Day 16's surprise!
