Three members of the Southern Yavapai County Search & Rescue team attended the Super Safety event up in Prescott. We were set up so that folks attending the event could get information on what we do as volunteers for the Yavapai County Sheriff’s Department.

Local men and women who are willing to provide a valuable service to the community

The Wickenburg area unit, the Southern Yavapai County Sheriff’s Response Team (SYCSRT), is looking for new members.

Interested individuals will have an opportunity to receive hands-on experience in such skills as man tracking, map reading, GPS use, rough country ATV training, radio communications and emergency first aid.  Training will take place in locations from in-town to some of the most picturesque, and virtually unknown, places in the backcountry of rustic and rugged Yavapai County.

Volunteers will develop the confidence to find that unwary soul who is injured, lost or just broke down, with little hope of getting out on his own. Duties are varied and include everything from foot, quad or 4X4 searches, or organizational and communications activities right at base camp.

Such individuals will learn that SYCSRT members never travel alone and that all basic equipment and supplies are available to prospective members.

Volunteers’ expenses are tax deductible, with some costs reimbursed by the county.

Part-time residents are also encouraged to apply. Must have a AZ drivers license.

The Southern Yavapai County Sheriff’s Response Team (SYCSRT) is made up of dedicated individuals who volunteer their time and effort to provide important Search and Rescue operations in conjunction with the Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office.  For more information, please go to: http://sycsrt.org , email us at:  sar@sycsrt.ORG, or call (928)684-7760 or (928)684-2334.
