Santa Monica Mounted Posse

Santa Monica Mounted Posse The Santa Monica Mounted Posse (SMMP) was established by a group of horsemen in 1930 as an outreach to the community. SMMP is a 501c3 organization.

The SMMP represents the City of Santa Monica in parades and events throughout southern California. Today, the SMMP is the oldest mounted unit in the state of California. Its members stand equipped and ready to assist in the event of an emergency or disaster. We and our horses wear distinctive black and white uniforms and silver tack with pride, because it symbolizes our dedication to serve. If you

have an intrest in joining the Posse please message us and one of the board members will be in touch with you shortly. All membership candidates are subject to a background check by the Santa Monica Police Department. Santa Monica Mounted Posse is a 501c3 organization.

Remembering those who served our country and never made it home. We especially remember Major Rick Crocker, killed in Fallujah, Iraq on May 26, 2005. Rick was a Santa Monica Police Officer. We will never forget.

Only for the serious.

Jo Mitchell asked to post Archie's Sketch with the following inquiry:

" I was hoping this could be posted. This is a charcoal sketch I just found of Tommy Garcia by my dad. I was hoping to get it to someone in his family. I’m hoping someone in the group might know how to find a family member. "

After never ending days of rain, your Santa Monica Police Horses were happy to get out in the sun for a training day. Today we received a visit from our partners at Ontario PD who got an up close picture of how we run our Mounted Unit.
