Mock Search #3 was held July 20 at Redwood Park between Oakland and Orinda. The search scenario involved bloodhounds, ground teams, air scent dogs, and equestrian units searching for two missing children. During the exercise, a film crew shot videotape which will be used to produce a public service announcement and a promotional video. Additional scenes were shot several weekends later at Briones Park, where the pictures below were taken.
