The Mounted Watch


We will be conducting Mounted Watch for Gulf Wars XX and most of the primary roads on site are part of the new routes. Detailed routes will be discussed at the mounted security authorizations.

Authorizations for Mounted Watch will be held early in the week. Please see the Equestrian Schedule for times.

 

Rules and Requirements:


  • Volunteers riding the site will be doing so as part of the Mounted Watch program
  • Volunteers for Mounted Watch must have a Riding and Games Authorization
  • Volunteers must attend a Mounted Watch orientation class before being allowed to ride the site.
  • Volunteers must pass a horse/rider combined authorization before being allowed to ride the site.
  • Volunteers will need to stop by Security Point to pick up a radio and let the staff know you are on patrol.
  • Volunteers should patrol at least in pairs. Only one rider needs to carry a radio.
  • Please be aware of your surroundings and do not obstruct foot or vehicular traffic.
  • Riders should not enter camps, Merchant Row or the Food Court area even if requested to do so. Call the Watch and ask them to come assist.
  • Volunteers riding night patrols should have bells attached to their horses harness and carry a flashlight.
