Posse

The Yuma County Sheriff’s Posse is a volunteer unit that was established to assist the Sheriff’s Office during emergencies. The Posse routinely helps the Sheriff’s Office with mounted security details at the Yuma County Fair, at Grad Night, at block parties and other benefits throughout the county.

The Posse also assists in ground searches for missing persons and fugitives. They are invaluable to the Sheriff’s Office during natural disasters as they help certified officers secure homes in flooded areas, direct traffic, and handle communications among volunteers.

The Posse also stages many benefits to raise scholarship funds and helps support the Yuma High School Rodeo Association.
