Saturday, April 11 | 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Join the New England K9 Search and Rescue Team for a special presentation at Philo Ridge Farm on Saturday, April 11 from 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM.
Founded in 1981, NEK9 provides highly trained search and rescue personnel and K9 teams, free of charge, to law enforcement agencies across Vermont and New Hampshire to assist in locating lost and missing persons. You can learn more about their work at nek9sar.org.
During this program, the NEK9 team will share who they are, what they do, and how they train their dogs to “airscent” and locate missing individuals. The presentation will also highlight the range of search resources NEK9 provides to support emergency response efforts. The program will conclude with a live search demonstration with the dogs, always a favorite with audiences.
Admission is free. Families, outdoor enthusiasts, and anyone interested in search and rescue are encouraged to attend.
