Colchester Technical Rescue: A volunteer organization serving community, and state, in the areas of technical rescue, USAR, back country, and water rescue.

Description

Organized in 1989, Colchester Rescue Squad created a dive rescue team in cooperation with the Police Department and Harbormaster. By 1991, we acquired a small surplus van to carry technical rescue equipment, as well as a small inflatable Zodiac motorboat. Over the years, we have acquired more equipment, training, and responsibility. We now provide the following services to the Town of Colchester, Chittenden County, and the State of Vermont: - Dive rescue (of all disciplines) - Swift water rescue - Back country / wilderness search and rescue - High angle rope rescue - Collapse rescue - Trench rescue - Confined space rescue - Large animal rescue Today, we are known as Colchester Technical Rescue. We are a fully volunteer organization comprised of firefighters, EMT's, paramedics, police officers, doctors, nurses, and even a veterinary doctor as well as many other vital professions. We run roughly 50 calls per year and provide mutual aid to a number of local services including Stowe Mountain Rescue. The team is recognized throughout the state for its work in water and ice rescue emergencies, as well as many other hazardous terrain rescues. We continue to strive for excellence in all of our specialties so we can provide safe, quick, and effective services for the citizens and visitors to the State of Vermont.
