Message from the Sheriff:

In Observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day

 

Martin Luther King Jr. was an American Baptist minister and activist who became the most visible spokesperson and leader in the civil rights movement from 1954 until his death in 1968. Since 1986, the birth date of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. has been observed as a federal holiday by the federal government. It should be a day of community and humanitarian service, and interracial cooperation. 

 

"Life's most persistent and urgent question is: 'What are you doing for others?' - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

 

Let's give back to our community today and find opportunities to continue to serve in the future.
