Escondido Mounted Posse

The Escondido Mounted Posse was Chosen in 2011 to ride in the 2012 Tournament of Roses Parade in Pasadena.  A page is being created to show all the highlights.

Chartered in 1948, the Escondido Mounted Posse was organized to support the local police at a time when there were only 12 regular officers.  The Posse was also called upon to assist with disasters and performed Search and Rescue operations and in addition, to act as “ambassadors” for the City of Escondido, participating in various events and parades.

Today, the Posse is made up of volunteers and attends 15 parades annually to serve as an historical reminder of Escondido’s early years.
