Our team is having an incredible time representing Stone County Emergency Services at the APCO 2026 Conference in San Antonio, Texas!

Between educational classes, our dispatchers have had the opportunity to connect with vendors from across the industry, network with fellow public safety professionals, and build valuable relationships with agencies from all over the country. They’ve also enjoyed exciting K-9 demonstrations, participated in fun vendor activities and games, and even took time to donate blood—another meaningful way our dispatchers continue to help save lives, both on and off the console.

The APCO Conference is a fantastic opportunity to learn, grow, and bring back new ideas that will help us better serve our community. We’re proud of our team for taking advantage of every opportunity to expand their knowledge while also having a little fun along the way.

We can’t wait to bring what we’ve learned back home to Stone County!

With the recent heavy rainfall, several areas and roadways throughout the county are flooded. Avoid all flooded roads and stay away from moving water. Never ignore roadway warning signs or barricades. Remember: Turn Around, Don't Drown. Your safety is more important than reaching your destination.
