Today we conducted our physical fitness test as the start of the hiring process for our upcoming September academy has officially begun. Great job by all of those that participated and by the staff that volunteered their time.
Sheriff Bowler and the staff want to congratulate our very own Christopher Keegan who received the Dr. David B. Kagan Award, presented to him by the Pittsfield Rotary Club. Each year this award is given to someone who provides outstanding community service.
To the men and women who have served our country and to the many men and women who are currently in harm’s way, WE SALUTE YOU! Thank you for your service!!!
