Launching Today
As announced on EDSAR-yahoo listserve; the following is a list of searches (incomplete); cadaver searches have been redacted until I receive more information on whether those cases will enhance the "Search Tales" on the ESARC website.
In the spirit of my wish for a SAR Management Summary document, when you respond to these individual searches with your crystal clear recollections of your role/knowledge in this search, keep in mind the following parameters that will provide us all much more useful information:
Date of callout; Date of finish; Geographic identifier of PLS AND IC location; Age; Gender; Occupation or endeavor (truckdriver, elderly citizen, berry picker, lone hiker, etc.); Key words as they relate to search (clues etc); IC(s); Types of assets used (SAR volunteers, equipment, outside agencies, # of EDSO staff); # of volunteers involved; Land, weather, search conditions;
;Pertinent other details;Disposition- found alive/dead/medical case; not found;Location in relation to PLS/ IC (in standard distance measurement); Pertinent rescue/recovery details; Pertinent facts for further SAR learning; and finally how did the outcome compare to the management scenario ):):)
Okay, here is the list. Each search is a separate posting; reply with your comments (give us first name and SAR# please). If you want to tell us about a search not listed please contact Alan SAR 302.
El Dorado Sheriff Search and Rescue- Partial List of In-County Searches
2001-2006
Compiled by Alan SAR 302 from CARDA database
Note: Some important searches may be omitted from this list and some of these on the list may not be worthy of a “search tale” on the website. Note this list would exclude significant mutual aid in places like Placer, Amador etc; or searches that were primarily OHV etc.
Please contact Alan SAR 302 Dog handler names included in this list. We really need the membership to come forward from Foot to Mounted to OHV to Management etc to fill in the blanks, Thank you

Getting Ready To Launch
This is the document distributed at the January 2007 All-SAR meeting. We hope to have a partial list of searches on this site shortly
Call to action: SAR members to help us compose narratives of past searches
Partly due to recent efforts to get ESARC grants and a general desire to upgrade our great website, we are trying to flesh out narratives of memorable and instructive SARs since 2000.
Based on a pending unofficial list of EDSARC searches over the past six or so years, we have set up a dedicated website to harvest the recollections of members in order to publish more recent narratives of these searches.
Official launch will be announced soon on the EDSAR-yahoo groups email to all receiving members soon. This announcement will list selected searches and direct you to a site designed to collect your excerpts, recollections, tales, memories etc.:
http://edsarnotes.blogspot.com
This blog is not password-protected but it is also not Google-searchable so that the “raw data” is unlikely to be perused by the typical internet denizen. And we will not use subject names and limit poster (those adding Comments) information (requested) to first name and SAR number. Only the moderator (Alan-SAR 302) can make new posts, but anyone accessing this site can add Comments to these posts (each representing a specific search).
How Will This Work?
1) You will be directed to http://edsarnotes.blogspot.com by the EDSAR-Yahoo email. This initial email will have a shopping list of searches we want create narratives for.
2) Sequential blog posts will have as first post- a short paragraph describing subject, time, place, etc. In some cases they might be referred to by an acronym also, based on a site or type of subject.
3) Members can then reply to these listings (Comments) and add their first-person experience about this specific search
4) Possible details we will use include: PLS, family interview information (no names), geographic location, weather conditions, search conditions, clues, challenges, types of assets used, outcome, lessons learned etc. Remember the final product is for public consumption to learn about what we do.
5) A final draft will be composed from all the contributions. This will allow members to review this draft for factual accuracy. When completed, the narrative will be installed on the ESARC website, in this area: http://comspark.com/esarc/searches/index.html
Tips: Don’t worry about composition. Our spin-meisters will turn the information into prose. If you don’t access internet or if you aren’t prone to keying in some information on a specific search, your input is still valued. Please contact Alan-SAR 302
