The Arapahoe Rescue Patrol is a search and rescue team based in Arapahoe County, Colorado. Composed entirely of young adults currently in high school, the members of the Patrol have provided "free search, rescue, and emergency services for the citizens of Colorado's front range and throughout all of Colorado" since 1957
There are approximately 50 active individuals on the Patrol roster including about 30 youth regular members and officers. Of the remaining 25 there are 9 adults who serve on the corporate Board of Directors and oversee operations, and 21 are adults who have "graduated" from the Patrol but have stayed involved in the program to contribute their expertise.
Four team sergeants, two Command Staff lieutenants, and one Command Staff captain are in charge of daily Patrol operations. They work closely with an adult team of an assistant chief, a deputy chief, and a chief, but the command in the field is with the youth!
