Sandbridge Beach Rescue Squad

Sandbridge Beach is home to one of the largest volunteer rescue squads in the city of Virginia Beach. Sandbridge residents as well as vacationers have the peace of mind knowing that a well trained and well equipped rescue squad is ready to come to their aid in a medical emergency.

Located in the state of the art Sandbridge Beach fire station, the 2 ambulances are centrally located within Sandbridge.

An annual fund raising event for the rescue squad is also one of the community’s biggest social events. The Sandbridge Pig Pickin’ raises thousands for the squad. Sponsors and individual ticket sales generate the funds. In addition to all the barbeque, fried fish hush puppies, baked beans, hot dogs and ice cream you can eat is all the beer you should think of drinking. The Budweiser truck complete with taps coming out of the sides stands ready for service each year.

Local artists man booths and showcase their wares. Dancing to the sounds of a live band round out the day.
