​                                                    SAREX / M.U.S.T.A.N.G. Event

                                                                June 24-25, 2017

                                                     Airlake Airport, Lakeville MN

​Minnesota Wing Civil Air Patrol (the “CAP”) will be joining with SRRRMN to host a multi-disciplinary joint SAREX (Search and Rescue Exercise)training session in Lakeville, Minnesota.

This training will represent the first time the CAP will pool its expertise and resources to develop operational experience and relationships with other search agencies and resources.  The event provides a unique opportunity for diverse members of the search community to work together in an educational and interactive exercise and to build relationships with resources you may not routinely encounter. 

Attending search disciplines and resources will include:
  • Minnesota Wing Civil Air Patrol (including its command and communications group, as well as airborne search and ground teams)
  • A UAS (Unmanned Aircraft System, i.e. “drones”) service provider
  • K-9 teams
  • Mounted posse units
  • Search management resources
  • Other search resources

The weekend schedule is currently planned as follows:

  • Saturday, June 24th:  Capabilities training session showcasing the different disciplines, with appropriate demonstrations and interaction with the attendees. This will be held at Airlake Airport and based in the CAP operations hanger.
  • Sunday, June 25th:  Simulated search and rescue operation in the Lakeville, MN area. CAP staff, together with the exercise’s IC team, will direct the multiple units and search resources through a search exercise.

Participants wishing to stay Saturday night will have access to designated areas approved for tenting, RV parking, and an area for mounted units with their horses.

Camp Ripley Training

Picture
On October 19th 2015, Central Lakes Search and Rescue invited anyone interested to join them for an open training at Camp Ripley on the tunnels, rubble pile, buildings and woods.  Members from Central Lakes, Northstar, HRD LLC, CCMP, SRRRMN, and Water Valley Rescue all enjoyed beautiful weather and creative challenges. Afterward, those who could stay gathered for dinner at a local restaurant and enjoyed a moment to relax together before driving home.

Passing of Fred Graupmann

Sadly, Fred Graupmann passed away on October 11, 2014, after a long battle with cancer.  Fred was a member of the Carver County Mounted Posse for decades, a founding member of Search, Rescue, and Recovery Resources of Minnesota (SRRRMN), and an active member with the MN Sheriff's Mounted Posse Association and Emergency Support Services (ESS).  Fred was a fixture at the State Posse Association booth at the Horse Expo, where he promoted posse work to our peers and had a great rapport with the public.  Fred was helpful with other units setting up posses.  

Minnesota has lost a great advocate of mounted patrol.
