Parry Sound residents may notice an increased number of Canadian Coast Guard zodiac rescue craft in the water and helicopters in the sky.
However, there is no emergency or danger to the public.
Officials say the Canadian Coast Guard’s Inshore Rescue Boat program is holding search and rescue training for crews in the area from April 25 to May 12.
According to officials, each summer, the Canadian Coast Guard hires post-secondary students and trains them as rescue boat crews at stations across the country.
The training certifies and prepares the students to respond to marine emergencies during the summer months.
