Hamilton SAR Group provides highly competent and operationally focused teams
that are well led, trained and equipped.
This months meeting will be held at Extreme Edge indoor rock climbing 90 Greenwood Street (almost oposite KFC). Extreme Edge are offering 10% off for SAR members on the night so head down about 6pm for some fun. It can be cold there so make sure you have some warm clothing.
This months training will be on the last Wednesday of May, the 30th. It will be on the south or west side of Hamilton. More details once they are finalised.
Reminder for all those members with pagers. The first of every month a test message is sent out to ensure your pager is operational, if you do not receive this message you should contact Matt.
Contact Russell if there are any changes to your contact details so the callout list is updated. Change of email address also needs to be passed on to Jake for the newsletter.
Matt is organsing a combined overnight event in conjunction with Raglan coastguard for sometime in June or July.
The new LandSAR CEO, Harry Maher, may be visiting Hamilton on Wednesday the 20th of June. The details will be confirmed soon.
For the last 12 years the Hamilton Search and Rescue Group has been providing an outstanding service by working with the Police to find people lost in the bush and towns around the Waikato. Run entirely by volunteers these enthusiastic and highly trained members are ready at a moment’s notice to drop what they are doing and respond to a search event.
We are seeking a new Chairman for the committee which manages day to day activities of the group. The committee mainly involved in the recruitment and training of members. The Chairman is expected to manage the committee meetings and to provide guidance for the group. The chairman would also be expected to drive the reviews of the strategic plan and ensure the group is meeting its statutory requirements. The committee meets on the second Monday of each month at 7.00pm.
The successful applicant will get to enjoy the company of a great bunch of outdoor oriented volunteers who are committed to serving the community. The chairman would be welcome to attend the group training sessions but would not be expected to turn out for a search in the middle of the night.
It is preferred that applicants have previous chair and governance experience. A background in management would be advantageous.
A sense of humour and some patience are essential as is the ability to work with passionate people.
Familiarisation with the organisation and how it works will be provided.
The opportunity to help save lives by helping to make this SAR Group perform more effectively.
The calendar is now available at hsar.org.nz/calendar. This will be keep up to date so you can refer to it at any time.
