Mounted Patrol

The Mounted Patrol Unit is a volunteer group of special deputies and their horses. They provide community event assistance for the Sheriff's Office. The unit may also be called upon to provide search and rescue and crowd control. (Volunteers at the Sheriff's Office earn the title of "special deputy" after they complete training and they are sworn-in by the Sheriff.)
