The quoted text below is from Mary Lou Johnson, a long-time member of
MSAR-Riders, reporting on the current status of her MSAR unit in Sanders
County, Montana. Like some other MSAR units, hers was founded within
an established saddle club but now is in transition to a specialty unit
within an established SAR team. You can find her old posts in our web
archive.

Congratulations, Mary Lou!
