Hi,
My name is Carla and I am the Commander of the Solano Co Sheriff's Posse in California. We have had our growing pains with the ATV 4x4 group in the Sheriff's Organization. At one time there were separate groups under the SO - Posse,4$x4, Air, and Radio. About 4 years ago, the previous Sheriff put us all together under the new OES office. They didn't understand the mounted resource and gravitated to the 4x4 group (who also didn't understand horses or care to). The Posse pulled out of the group under the current sheriff and did only PR work. I became Commander this past July and we are rejoining the OES office. This have dramatically changed in that office, with the passage of time, change of personnel, direction from the current sheriff and education about our resource. We are basically starting a new in MSAR but education is the key to organizig with the other groups, and the AHJ ( in our case the SO) has to take a stand and decide that the groups are going to work together.
It's possible. It's not compatibility between horses and ATV's that is the problem, its the people perceptions and understanding. If I can be of help please feel free to contact me..
Also if you have any good info on starting an MSAR unit please let me know, I could use the input.
Thanks,
--
