As many of you know Kris Frick past away last year in a sandrail accident. Many of his family and friends have started a non-profit corp. From what I understand they are trying to get EMS program out in mother G 24/7. I talked to his brother and they have had a few meetings with the BLM about this.
I am not sure about all of the details yet but they are having a fund raiser that will only benefit all of us at "Joe's Garage" in Santa Ana on June 9. I will post the link below, anyone that can go please do. We all know that if medical care could have been there a little sooner more lives could have been saved. Thats what these people are trying to set up for all of us.
As I find out more info I will post it. I dropped the ball, this should have been up two weeks ago. Please do anything you can.
Mods, maybe we can pin this post?

Thank you.
That will probably be the day of Raewyn's 18th bday party. I'll send in a donation.
What about a casino night with the event at Joe's Garage? I can give one hell of a deal. This is my first post i have been reading all of this great info and i thought it was time to joing in.
This is something all must attend if you can. This organazation will help keep people in the dunes even duiring the summer with vehicles equiped to get to the hurt ones. Imagine breaking your neck and no one being able to help you for almost 2 hours or just not getting help soon enough and dying.
Please help them help us!
Kris hope you enjoyed our little chat saturday night.

The folks setting up / running the foundation are hardcore! They've made a lot of things happen and are working on more... truly amazing what a group of individuals can accomplish when they set their minds to it 
Agreed.

KCDF Foundation donates 2 rescue vehicles for dunes
By IMPERIAL VALLEY PRESS STAFF The KCDF Foundation and Gold Cross Ambulance Service worked together during the past 18 months to equip Gold Cross with two new Ford F-150s for the upcoming Glamis season.
The trucks were purchased and donated by the KCDF Foundation, which was established by six Los Angeles families after the death of foundation namesake, Kris “Chili Dog” Frick.
Frick died April 9, 2006, as the result of a sand rail accident in the Glamis dunes. When he was injured in the dunes, it took more than an hour to get medical help to him, and he died before reaching the hospital.
As a result, Frick’s family and friends learned about the limited availability of effective and timely emergency medical services out in the dunes. In the months after Frick’s death, they formed the Kris “Chili Dog” Frick Public Benefit Corp., a nonprofit organization whose mission is “To increase dune rider safety awareness and to conduct fundraising to enhance the medical services in Glamis dunes.”
The KCDF Foundation contacted Gold Cross Ambulance after the incident and asked if there was anything it could do to help not allow another incident to happen to other families during the peak season at Glamis.
One way to prevent that was to outfit Gold Cross with the new Ford F-150 pickups, which are being retrofitted to meet the demands of an EMS vehicle designed for off-road emergencies. The new units will ready and available for the upcoming Glamis season, which opens in the next couple weeks.
KCDF and Gold Cross also joined with Imperial County Emergency Medical Services, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management and El Centro Regional Medical Center to pursue goals in four different areas:
n Extend the capabilities of on-call EMS personnel and ambulances at the dunes to better access patients in the center of the dunes area.
n Provide a climate-controlled triage facility with two beds and restroom facilities for the EMS personnel to use while on call at the dunes.
n Enhance “on the dunes” emergency response through the support of existing emergency response vehicles, providing additional vehicles for the EMS personnel and provide driver training to EMS personnel for dune rescues.
n Provide free information and handouts to the users of the dunes, identifying “ride-safe” sand sport activities along with what and where to go if an emergency arises.
