Saturdays with Neighbors

On July 12, 2025 Mr. John Urosek will present information about the Quecreek Mine Rescue which happened on July 24, 2002.  At the time, Mr. Urosek was a mining engineer and ventilation specialist with the Mine Safety and Health Administration.  His input, experience and knowledge of mining along with several individuals, devised a plan to save the miners.  All the miners were rescued and the experience of what was learned in this miracle rescue has been used in other trapped miners around the world.  He will present information on the events of those days and how the experience has been used for the future rescues.
