Friends, this year we come to you with a different message for the holiday season. We are humbly asking for your help to support one of our own.

Shannon Mcarron is a former Adventure Medics EMT who consistently set the standard for compassion, professionalism, and dedication to others. She and her husband Dave are the parents of three children, two of whom have significant medical needs. Their youngest, Isaac, was diagnosed before birth with severe spina bifida and Chiari II malformation. Despite the challenges, Shannon and Dave chose hope—and that decision brought a joyful, loving little boy into the world.

Isaac’s care is complex and constant. He requires daily catheterization, medications, multiple therapies, and frequent visits to specialists—many of whom are over an hour away. Because of the level of care Isaac needs, Shannon was forced to step away from her EMT career to stay home, making the Mcarrons a one-income household. Despite applying for all available assistance, the financial strain has been overwhelming. Medical bills, insurance copays, specialty supplies, and travel costs continue to accumulate. Like many families in similar situations, they are now facing difficult choices between basic necessities such as utilities, food, and ongoing medical care.

We are asking our community to come together to support the Mcarron family. All funds raised will go directly toward medical expenses, supplies, travel for appointments, utilities, and essential living costs, helping provide stability and peace of mind during this challenging time.

The link to our GoFundMe is in our bio. Please consider donating if you are able or share their story.

Thank you.

Two ambulances, one mission. 🚑🚑
Today both Adventure Medics ambulances were on site and working side-by-side with our partners at Arbor Health Morton Hospital. We’re proud to support their team and the community with dependable, ready-to-roll emergency and transport coverage.

Did you know we staff three different 24/7 ALS rigs in Washington?! That’s right- we have two fully staffed ambulances in Onalaska WA that respond to 911 calls for Mossyrock and handle IFT transports for and other area hospitals! Further east, we have 24/7 ALS support in Packwood with one paramedic and a sprint rig to back up the local fire department and ensure top medical care and support extends all the way across Lewis County.

Thanks to all our teams up north for everything you do 💜

M E E T T H E M E D I C S:

Meet Alec Leetch, our newest Regional Manager for the Oregon Transport Division! Alec joined Adventure Medics in June 2025 as a part-time Critical Care Paramedic before stepping into the Director role later that year, filling the big shoes of Michael Johnson, now our Ranch Director.

Alec began his EMS career in 2012 and completed the OIT/OHSU Paramedic program in 2015. He earned his FP-C in 2017 and flew critical care missions across Alaska and the PNW for seven years. For the last three of those, he served as Clinical Operations Manager for three rotor-wing bases in NE Oregon and SE Washington, overseeing 24+ RNs and medics. He has also volunteered with Volcano Search and Rescue on Mt. St. Helens. Before EMS, Alec spent six years in wildland fire, finishing as a Hotshot on a Type I crew.

Alec’s favorite part of Adventure Medics is the people: “We have an outstanding group of EMTs, Paramedics, and RNs. We foster cohesiveness and camaraderie with each other and our healthcare partners throughout Central Oregon. It also lets me serve the community that raised me… and we have the coolest looking ambulance I’ve ever seen!” He’s also passionate about developing leaders and supporting their professional growth.

Originally from Central Oregon—and even a Bend St. Charles baby—Alec is excited to return home. He and his wife live on their ranch in Eastern Oregon with their two children and a lively collection of animals (3 dogs, 2 cats, 2 horses, 14 cows, 3 pigs, and 6 sheep). Outside work, he’s cheering on his kids’ sports, flying his restored 1947 tail-dragger, or exploring the mountains. He has traveled to Ukraine three times since the start of the war to provide humanitarian aid, deliver supplies, and teach pre-hospital medical care. Most importantly: he won the 4th-grade geography bee!

Welcome to the team, Alec—we’re so glad you’re here!
