During the 2010-2011 fiscal year, in addition to our normal duties and responsibilities, King George Sheriff's Office was fortunate enough to participate in a number of worthwhile events, which included Fall Festival, Shop with a Cop, Relay for Life, and the Some Gave All Ride. Two other Special Olympics events still await us, and are always well attended.

Throughout this past year, there have also been a few personnel changes. C. A. Giles and A. M. Clift were promoted to Lieutenants, in charge of Patrol and Investigations, respectively. Detective Karen Richards was promoted to Detective Sgt. and Cpl. Crocker was promoted to Sgt., in charge of Professional Standards. The newest member of our law enforcement family, Deputy Wayland Carter, was hired to a Court Security position and will attend the Academy later this summer. Sgt. Lyons was recognized by Rappahannock Area Alcohol Safety Action Program for a record number of DUI arrests, while Lt Giles was given a Leadership Award by F.O.P. Lodge #15.
