FEATURED EVENTS
October will mark the 15th anniversary of the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office Citizens Academy. Let's take a moment to reflect on this incredible milestone.
​
Fifteen years ago, a vision was set in motion: to create a bridge between our community and the HCSO, fostering trust, understanding, and collaboration. Deputy Bryant Orem led the inaugural HCSO Citizens Academy and through continued dedication from other Academy leaders: Lieutenant Ryan McClain and Deputy Bryan Melton, the Academy has become a beacon of partnership, where citizens and law enforcement come together with a shared purpose: to make our community safer and stronger.
​
Over the past 15 years, the Academy has accomplished remarkable things. Including establishing the Alumni Association. Through countless volunteer hours and community outreach programs, you have shown the true meaning of civic responsibility. Your dedication to the Academy and its mission has strengthened the bonds of friendship and respect between our citizens and the men and women who serve and protect us.
As we celebrate this anniversary, let us take pride in all that we have achieved together. Let us honor the legacy of those who have come before us and continue to inspire those who will follow in our footsteps.
This milestone is a testament to the power of community and we ​thank you for your unwavering commitment, your passion, and your heart. Here’s to 15 years of making a difference—and to many more to come!
