820 Red Horse Squadron Annual Holiday Party

Red Horse Booster Club

The 820th RED HORSE Squadron is one of four active duty RED HORSE Squadrons and is located at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada, reporting directly to the 12th Air Force (Air Forces Southern) Commander.  It is a self-sufficient, 404-person civil engineer and logistics unit capable of providing rapid response and independent operations in remote, high-threat environments to support worldwide contingencies and special operations.

The 820th RHS provides full-spectrum construction capabilities with equipment.  RED HORSE Airmen blend multi-skilled engineering, vehicle maintenance, services, material management, security forces, and medical personnel to provide heavy construction and repair capability to the theater Air Component Commander.

RED HORSE Squadrons have worldwide responsibilities and can support any conventional weapon system within the built environment. Major wartime and disaster response capabilities include a rapidly deployable, fully-armed, self-sufficient civil engineering unit capable of performing personnel or weapons systems bed-down, and repair heavily damaged facilities and infrastructure systems.

RED HORSE troop training projects assist base construction efforts while honing wartime responsibilities and proficiencies.  RED HORSE possesses cradle-to-grave design-build capability, to include site surveying, design, planning, procurement, and construction. Typical projects include vertical and horizontal construction, such as K-Span construction, pre-engineered buildings, concrete masonry unit block construction, and large scale concrete and asphalt pavements.

The 820th RHS is responsible for training all 15 Active, Guard, and Reserve RED HORSE units in special engineering capabilities.  The highly motivated training section is responsible for instructing RED HORSE Airmen across the force in each of these special capability areas: explosive demolition, quarry operations, water-well drilling, materials testing, concrete plant operations, concrete mobile batching operations, concrete placement, asphalt milling and paving operations, and asphalt plant operations.  Newly added to the 820th RHS training mission is mobile crane operation training for all Civil Engineering units across the Air Force. It is the only Air Force location that provides a civilian operators certification.  Additionally, the unit possesses other special capabilities such as aircraft arresting system installation, expedient facility erection with the use of the K-Span machine and Frame CAD.

The 820th RHS provides rapid response to continuing missions and emerging threats that arise around the globe.  Combatant Commanders expect RED HORSE to provide expedient engineering, airfield and facility capability assessments, and repairs to damaged infrastructure.  This type of mobility and flexibility allows for follow-on forces and materiel resources to establish airfield contingency operations and force bed-down anywhere, any time.  This is what makes the 820th RHS unit the premier military construction force of choice.

They are actively involved in the community with events such as Muscular Distrophy Association, Meals for Vets, Three Square Food Bank, and Angel Tree programs. The organization hosts an annual Holiday Party to honor those commitments and to show support for those leaving or returning from deployments.

SunBuggy is proud to donate to this worthwhile cause. We are donating three packages worth over $1400 with the hope that it will benefit the Red Horse Booster Club 820 Red Horse Squadron.

Boys & Girls Club of Greater Anaheim-Cypress

Boys & Girls Club of Greater Anaheim-Cypress
We believe that education is the key to breaking the cycle of poverty. We believe that a safe and loving environment for children will enable them to realize their full potential, and become productive, caring, responsible citizens. In every community, boys and girls are left to find their own recreation and companionship in the streets. An increasing number of children are at home with no adult care or supervision. Young people need to know that someone cares about them. Boys & Girls Clubs offer that and more. Club programs and services promote and enhance the development of boys and girls by instilling a sense of competence, usefulness, belonging and influence. Boys & Girls Clubs are a safe place to learn and grow – all while having fun. It is the place where great futures are started each and every day.

YO Court

The focus for this specialty drug court is on those defendants between the ages of 18 and 24, young offenders (YO), and requires family support and participation. The program was launched in July 2010 and follows an intensive supervision drug court model with a focus on family treatment. This team has found a formula that is successful with the drug court defendants, especially with young offenders. YO Court mandates frequent court status checks, substance abuse treatment, community service activities, random drug testing, life skill classes, homework assignments and family involvement.

YO Court comprises a team of specialists, treatment providers, attorneys, house arrest officers and other community providers who work with the defendants to obtain and maintain sobriety. Over the course of the one-year program, defendants must demonstrate responsibility for their drug and alcohol problems and negative life choices.
