                                                      (1) - Administrative Reserve Sergeant

                                                      (3) - Reserve Sergeants

                                                     (20) - Reserve Officers

The unit has continuous training in conjunction with the sworn members of the Traverse City Police Department.  Reserve officers are provided with uniforms, and equipment at no charge to them.

The unit works at all high school sporting events:   football, basketball, hockey games, etc.  They are instrumental in providing the force necessary to provide for safety and security during the National Cherry Festival during the first part of July, when approximately 250,000 people inundate the city that normally accommodates 25,000 residents.
