Mounted Patrol |  | | | The Sheriff’s Mounted Patrol is a volunteer civilian group serving Wright County. | | | | Mounted Patrol members own their own horses and equipment required to perform their duties.
Currently, 15 members serve on the Wright County Sheriffs Mounted Patrol.
The Sheriff's Mounted Patrol was established in 1991 and John “Jack” Bodin was the first founding member. | | | | The training program is an ongoing curriculum for the Mounted Patrol. All the horses and riders must be certified annually, prior to participating in public events.

Mounted Patrol members meet every month to discuss new training techniques, current events and concerns in the county. | | | The members also have training in: - Horsemanship
