About

About RQC (Rescue Challenge) 2019 — Rescue Challenge (Technical Rescue Association) — May 5–9, 2019 — Richmond / Henrico County Area, Virginia

RQC (Rescue Challenge) is a long-running technical rescue challenge/competition (often referred to as a conference-style event) focused on multi-discipline technical rescue scenarios including confined space, rope rescue, cave rescue, industrial/rescue scenarios, and water-related rescue problems. The 2019 event (RQC 2019) was scheduled for May 5–9, 2019 in the Richmond / Henrico County area of Virginia. The event draws USAR teams and technical rescue teams (historically up to ~200 firefighters/participants) from across the United States to test and hone skills; it typically includes scenario-based challenges and attracts rescue teams, instructors, and vendors. It is a recurring annual event (established mid-1990s) run by the Rescue Challenge organization/association.
