Tonight we went to the Washoe County Sheriff's Search and Rescue banquet. They have one every January to honor and appreciate the members and their families that so willingly serve the county on a volunteer basis. During Assistant Sheriff Emerson's thank you speech he mentioned that the services that SAR offered to the county in 2010 would have cost the tax payers close to $250,000.00, if it wasn't a volunteer operation. Pretty cool that there are those that are willing to go out in the middle of the night, in the harshest of conditions and put their lives on the line to help those in need...and they do it for FREE. I am very proud of my hubby and his heart and passion to help others, regardless of the lack of pay or glory.
We had a great night with a wonderful group of friends, great food and lots and lots of laughs!
