The cost of 12 STARS emergency responses have been paid for thanks to a $100,000 gift by Weatherford directed towards the new Fund-a-Flight program. The donation, which will fund one flight a month for the span of a year, is part of an ongoing partnership between the two organizations that began in 2005. In that timeframe, Weatherford has donated over $328,000 to STARS.

Today STARS air ambulance is beginning 24-hour-a-day operations at its Regina base. Until now, the STARS Regina base has only operated 12-hours per day from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Now that the majority of clinical and aviation staff have had time to become comfortable with the terrain and providing service in an air medical environment, the time is right to expand those hours.
