We were honored to spend time with some of our youngest community members during Community Helpers Day at the school! Sheriff Randy Dely, Colonel Will Rodgers, and Deputy Austin Blankenship enjoyed visiting with PreK and kindergarten students to share everything law enforcement officers do to help keep our community safe.

They talked with the students about the importance of gun safety and answered lots of thoughtful questions from the students. One of the highlights of the day was giving the students a chance to see the patrol cars up close!

We are grateful for opportunities like this to build positive relationships and help our children feel safe, confident, and connected to those who serve and protect them. Thank you to the school for welcoming us! Our future is bright with these wonderful young citizens!
