Silver Star Search & Rescue is a non-profit organization dedicated to wilderness and urban search and rescue. Our volunteers are on call 24 hours a day. We are supported by donations from the public and have no paid staff. We have provided emergency services to Clark, Skamania and Cowlitz Counties for over 40 years. Our rescue vehicles include a snow cat, a 6 wheel drive deuce, a 4 wheel drive suburban , a motor home, a communications van, and a mobile 10K generator. Our communications include a paging system for operations and a text message call-out network. In addition the team has 15 hand held radios for field communications. All of our vehicles are also equipped with radios to communicate with personnel in the field. We maintain our own headquarters in Washougal, WA 11 miles east of Vancouver just off of Highway 14. Our business meetings are held on the first Saturday of each month at 7:00PM. Anyone interested in membership and the general public is invited to attend. We also have junior memberships for those that are 16-17 years of age.
