It is with a heavy heart that I must inform you of the passing of one of our founding fathers, Dave Carter. Dave passed away on Saturday, leaving behind a legacy that will never be forgotten.![]()
![]()
Dave was one of the pioneers of the Virginia Search and Rescue Program, and literally wrote the book for the original program. With over 50 years of dedication to SAR, Dave was one of the most respected members of our community. For many of us, Dave was one of our first instructors, and his mentorship and guidance helped to shape us into the SAR professionals we are today.![]()
![]()
The SAR program in Virginia would not be where it is today without the dedication and determination of Dave. His unwavering commitment to the cause and tireless efforts in training and mentoring new recruits helped to save countless lives over the years. Many of the students he taught and mentored have gone on to become leaders in their own right, continuing Dave's legacy and passing on his teachings to future generations of SAR professionals.![]()
![]()
Dave will be deeply missed by all of us in the SAR community. His contributions to our field are immeasurable, and his memory will live on through the countless lives he helped to save and the many students he taught over the years.![]()

Please join me in extending our deepest sympathies to Dave's family, friends, and loved ones during this difficult time. Rest in peace, Dave. We will take it from here.

Monday, August 20th, 2018
Tearsa Edwards receives the 2017 Team Award
The team award is presented once a year, to one individual, who goes above and beyond to make Black Diamond a better team.
Tearsa is the Equine Team coordinator.
She worked tirelessly for two years to get the equine team trained, tested and credentialed to become a state equine team resource. During this time she also spent countless hours training as a ground team member and responding to missions in Virginia and out of state. Tearsa exemplifies the qualities we look for in members of Black Diamond.
