Ready Set Go

Ready, Set, Go! is a nationwide program adopted by the 15 Arizona Sheriffs that educates residents about proactive measures to take before an emergency and actions to follow when communities are threatened.

The three steps encourage Arizonans to get READY by preparing now for what threatens their community, be SET by maintaining awareness of significant danger and to GO, evacuate immediately when the danger is current and life-threatening.

Gila County Sheriff’s Office

Office info.

Tonto Rim Search & Rescue

If you have an emergency, call 911 or contact your local law enforcement office and ask the County Sheriff to dispatch TRSAR.

Under Arizona law, search and rescue groups can only respond to an emergency by authorization of the County Sheriff’s Office. Therefore, it is important that you do not call TRSAR directly, thus causing a delay in response time.
