What is MDI Search and Rescue and what does the team do?
MDI SAR is an all volunteer, nonprofit organization that assists the Maine Warden Service, National Park Service, and local authorities with searches and rescues of lost or stranded people. The MDI SAR team focuses on search and rescue operations on or near Mount Desert Island. Occasionally the team is called on to send members to other parts of the state to assist in search and rescue operations.
