Don't miss out on supporting ARSU ONE by purchasing your 2021-2022 Calendar!
When we set off to launch our fundraising calendar project, we wanted to tell a story, share some adventures, and to show you a little bit about what do. We also wanted to make this calendar stand out from the rest, by adding in some interesting fun facts each month that we call "Did you knows". Our belief is that we have put out more then just a calendar and that you will enjoy it as much as we have creating it (keep in mind this is a 24 month calendar).
By purchasing a calendar, you are helping us to help save lives, to educate and to lead by example in protecting the lakes, rivers and shorelines where we operate.
All proceeds go directly to our unit.
Thank you goes out to our many partners who support our efforts and who have agreed to promote the sales of this calendar through their business. We encourage you to visit these partners, all of who have shown their commitment to supporting our organization.

Meet K9 Gusztav the Water Rescue Dog (in training)
Hi my name is Gusztav (well officially it's Portside's Gusztav) and i was born on the 1-st of February 2019 in Erin Ontario. I am a Portuguese Water Dog. My mom's name is Portside's Je Ne Sais Quoi RN and my Dad's name is Baywood's Norse Legend. How I got the name Gusztav is something my partner/handler and best friend John will tell you about.
I am still a puppy, but when I grow up to be a big dog, I will help my handler and his team save lives in the water, and will become the first Water Rescue K9 that can deployed by a hovercraft.
