Help Build a Permanent Home for Princeton Ground Search and Rescue
Princeton Ground Search and Rescue is working toward a new, permanent operations building to support emergency response throughout Princeton and the Regional District of Okanagan Similkameen.
While we are incredibly grateful to the Town of Princeton for the space we currently use. We have been informed that it will only be available for a few more years, and it no longer meets the needs of a modern search and rescue team.
To continue responding quickly, training safely, and supporting our volunteers, we must invest now in a facility built for the work we do.
Why a New Building Is Essential
Search and Rescue operations rely on preparation, coordination, and speed. A dedicated building ensures our team can be ready when emergencies happen at any time of day, in any season.
A new operations home will allow us to:
Safely store rescue vehicles, technical gear, and medical equipment indoors
Train and meet year-round in a functional indoor space
Coordinate complex searches and emergency responses more efficiently
Support a growing volunteer team and expanding operational demands
Maintain reliable search and rescue services for our community long-term
Without a permanent facility, our ability to respond effectively is at risk.
Support the Future of Search and Rescue
Your support helps ensure that when someone in our region needs help, Princeton Ground Search and Rescue is ready to respond.

About Princeton Ground Search and Rescue
Princeton Ground Search and Rescue is a volunteer-based, non-profit organization serving Princeton and the surrounding Similkameen Valley in British Columbia.
Our region includes remote backcountry, forested terrain, grasslands, and mountainous areas that present unique challenges during emergencies. Our highly trained volunteers respond year-round, often in difficult conditions, to assist those who are lost, injured, or in distress.
Our members give their time freely, driven by a shared commitment to community safety and helping others when it matters most.
