Coquitlam SAR was invited by the New Westminster Sparks (Girl Guides of Canada) to go over the hug-a-tree educational package with the 5 and 6 year old future mountaineers and explorers.
The hug-a-tree presentation included: a short video, hands-on equipment demonstration, an avalanche beacon search, and a tour of the Coquitlam 2 truck.
Colouring books, whistles and orange emergency bags were provided to the 22 Sparks present.
Coquitlam SAR would like to thank the group for their enthusiastic support ~ it certainly brightened our day.
