The South Dakota EMS Association (SDEMSA) is having a fundraiser golf tournament, open to the public, to come together and support EMS providers. It is also an opportunity for pre-hospital providers from our communities to relax and relieve some stress while having a bit of fun for a good cause.
This tournament is a fundraising event for the continued support of EMS within our state. There has been a national campaign on suicide awareness with public safety. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder has come into the spotlight with the events we encounter in serving others. The SDEMSA is being proactive in collaborating with Healing Warriors-Wind River Ranch in Colorado. This partnership is a weeklong break from service to attend the ranch, unplug, relax, and find a spiritual balance. This Christian ranch offers opportunities to connect with others going through the same difficulties and add bible studies throughout the week. There are 2 EMS providers from South Dakota that have received scholarships to attend the ranch this summer in August, we are raising funds to offset costs of travel for those that otherwise may not be able to afford this opportunity.
Most EMS providers in our state are volunteer and have educational requirements to maintain their certification. The SDEMSA helps EMS providers around the state with educational opportunities throughout the year. We would appreciate your support of this event and the EMS providers around the state.
