Rescue Squad Week This is Tennessee Rescue Squad Week, and the Tennessee Emergency Management Agency (TEMA) is honoring the dedication of the hundreds of men and women in rescue squads across the state for their vital assistance and service. “Tennessee’s rescue squads risk their lives to save the lives of others every day,” says TEMA Director Patrick Sheehan. “We are fortunate to have such extremely-qualified, well-trained, and unselfishly-dedicated professionals in communities across the state promoting the organized rescue and first aid movement.” The Tennessee Association of Rescue Squads (TARS) says there are 95 rescue squads with 3,700 individual members in the state. Kingsport organized the state’s first rescue squad in 1948, and received its state charter in 1950.
