Do I Have To Be Certified To Join My Sheriffs Posse?

➡ Sheriffs can form policies and decide how to train their team members, who don’t need to be certified beforehand. It’s important to discuss with your sheriff about any existing policies and training requirements. The sheriff decides how much training you receive and how you’re used. Remember to support the cause through donations or by purchasing Sheriff Mac’s books. See you next week, and be careful during the 4th of July celebrations.

All right. Well, you want to wrap it up? We can wrap it up. Let’s see. I got one other box here. If a sheriff forms a policy, do the policy members need to be trained and certified before they can work with the sheriff? The answer is no, but it’s up to the sheriff how to utilize you and how to train you. So that’s part of what we offer you and have you go talk to your sheriff about that because we want you to find out if your sheriff does have a standing policy and what the training requirements are and is it different because people have been in the military or does he require them if he wants them to ride along with a cop and be immediate backup that’s in the car with the deputy? Do they have to be certified or are they already certified? And I would imagine they would even have to get military to brush up on their firearms training, but that can happen to everybody.

Everybody can get that. And again, it’s totally up to your sheriff how far he takes you, how far he uses you, and how far he trains you. But great question. Good. So yeah, Jack, I’m ready to roll. If you are, there’s nothing else. Thank you, everybody. Thank you. We appreciate everything you do. Lori says to tell you thank you and we look forward to seeing you next week. And that’s it. We’ll wrap it for the day, folks. Remember, csboa.org slash donations. If you just want to kick in for the Washington event, that’s a good place to do it.

Otherwise, go by the store and pick up a couple of sheriff Mac’s books. I have that particular one and I have read it. I was very close to it. I was running for sheriff a couple years ago and I provided those books to him as well. And he really appreciated it. Another idea there. Good idea there, folks. So yes, and I’ll be sending one to Sheriff Smith. So thanks, everybody. Thanks, Jack. See you. Bye. All right, folks. Thank you for coming. And we’ll do it again next week. Same time, same place.

Enjoy yourself. Be careful. It’s 4th of July. You never know what could happen. Bye now. [tr:trw].
