Application for Public Event Assistance

The Iron County Sheriff’s Office Volunteer Posse (SOP) are available to assist non-profit organizations and municipalities with traffic control and event monitoring at special events. Depending on the event and organization there may be a charge for these services.

Please be advised SOP members are not sworn peace officers and as such have no powers of arrest or enforcement. If you have an event with alcohol, or anticipate any issues with crowd control, SOP may be used but sworn Law Enforcement must be requested as well.

Some of the types of activities SOP will not provide coverage for include the following:

  1. They DO NOT assist with parking cars at an event.
  2. They DO NOT provide security for cash collected during an event.
  3. They CANNOT require people who are causing a disturbance to be removed from your event.

To request the assistance of the Iron County Sheriff's Office Volunteer Posse, your organization must meet the following criteria:

  1. Your organization must be a not-for-profit organization. If they are not, a charge for services may occur.
  2. Understand that a request does not grantee SOP will be able to accommodate your request for assistance.
  3. Your request for assistance must be submitted a minimum of three (3) weeks prior to the date of your event. Requests submitted with less notice may not be honored. Note: All of our personnel are volunteers and there may be times we may not be able to honor your request.
