Description
Eckerd College Search and Rescue team members were the first on the scene to help an injured 7-year-old girl out on a boat on Sunday.
The boat hit a wake and the 7-year-old injured her back. Once US Coast Guard Station St Petersburg members arrived, the Eckerd students continued to assist.
Krista Park, EC-SAR Maintenance and Operations Supervisor, said all of the students in the search and rescue program are volunteers. She said any student at Eckerd is welcome to join but they do have to go through training. “As long as they pass the tests with an average of about 85 percent, they can be here," said Krista.
