Our team is a three-county regional team on the MN-WI border near Duluth, MN. Initially, we were comprised of four agencies (Duluth PD, Superior PD, St. Louis County Sheriff and Douglas County Sheriff). When we first formed we had each of the four main agencies contribute funding to the team. This allowed us to get some basic equipment and training to the area. Since that time, we have expanded to include many other agencies throughout our region. We no longer require each member agency to contribute money and instead only ask for funding when it is needed (usually to bring in training to the area). All of the current equipment and resource needs are able to be met among the existing member agencies.
