Sheriff's Reserves
Once known as the "Sheriff's Posse", a somewhat murky distinction, Lewis and Clark County Reserve Deputies are now some of the most highly-trained and respected volunteers in the field of Criminal Justice.
Every summer and into fall, reserves have a contract with the United States Forrest Service to conduct camp ground checks around Lewis and Clark County. Reserves patrol camp grounds owned by Forest Service to ensure campers are being safe and are out of harms way. Getting out and speaking with the public is a big part of camp ground checks, sometimes on foot or on ATVs. As hunting season comes around, ensuring hunter's safety becomes their primary goal.
