Welcome Spring!

As the warm weather warms up and the flowers begin to bloom, we here at the Monroe County Sheriff's Office welcome the arrival of spring!

May the season brings you new beginnings, fresh opportunities, and blooming happiness. Enjoy the beauty of nature and the warmth of the sun as we welcome this time of growth and renewal.

Please remember that safety should always be top priority, regardless of your plans this spring. With warmer weather and longer daylight hours, many of us will spend more time outside. Whether taking a walk, jogging, or biking, always be aware of your surroundings and take the necessary precautions to protect yourself and those around you.

With more people spending time outside, it is important to be mindful of children playing near roads in our community. Please slow down and take extra caution when driving through residential neighborhoods.

As always, Monroe County Sheriff's Office remains committed to serving and protecting our communities. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us. Together we can make this spring a season of growth, renewal, and safety for all.

Wishing you a happy and safe Spring Season.

Veteran's Day



Veteran's Day, celebrated on November 11th each ear, is a tribute to military veterans who have served in the United States Armed Forces. It is a day of remembering the sacrifices of those who have fought to protect our country.

We are humbled by the bravery and courage of veterans in our community and our country-they are our neighbors, our friends, our family and our loved ones. We would like to thank all of our veterans and their families for keeping our country safe.

We strongly encourage everyone to think of our veterans and thank them when you see them. We support and honor our veterans, not just on Veteran's Day but every day of the year.

Halloween Safety Tips



The Halloween Holiday is coming up soon! We want to remind you to make safety a priority this Halloween when carving pumpkins, decoration, dressing up in costumes, and trick-or-treating.

Following is a list of safety tips to allow children to remain safe while experiencing the fun and excitement that comes with Halloween.

1. Leave pumpkin carving to the adults. Child helpers can grab a spoon and scoop out the inside or use a marker to trace the design.

2. Battery-operated lights or glow sticks are recommended for decorations and re the safest option.

3. Use a ladder when hanging or removing decorations, and only use lights that have been tested for safety.

4. Wear a costume that fits and avoid overly long or baggy costumes to prevent trips and falls.

5. Know when to wear protective mask and what prevention steps to take for COVID-19.

Halloween can be safe and enjoyable evening for all with a little preparation, communication, and diligence.

The Monroe County Sheriff's Office will be on patrol and available to you and your children should you need us. As always, please dial 911 in the case of an emergency.
