Sheriff's "Rising Stars" Program Gets Ready for Kick-Off!

Camp to be help July 27th - July 31st!


Sheriff Carter and his staff are putting the final pieces together this week as they prepare to launch this years "Sheriff's Rising Stars" program. This one week day camp is designed for students to learn a variety of legal information pertaining to the criminal justice system and leadership skills and traits. However, what the Sheriff and his staff are excited about the most is that this will allow the youth of our community to interact with local law enforcement and learn more about what they actually do!

Sheriff Carter said that "this is yet another extension of Community Policing which our community is starving for."

The summer camp will consist of a variety of events from light physical training, classroom instruction on law enforcement to field trips and much more! The Lee County Sheriff's office will provide activities and will even provide free lunches for the participants. Deputies and a cast of volunteers within the organization will supervise and conduct all of the instruction. Some of the topics will include, but not limited to; Role of the Magistrate, History of the Sheriff, Tour of the Lee County Sheriff's Office, Instruction in areas of Fingerprinting; Photography; Crime scene sketch; Courtroom testimony mock trail; Boating safety, Canine demonstration and much, much more! Anyone interested in attending or wanting more information should contact
Sgt. Renea Seydel at rseydel@leecountync.gov

The program described here is just another example of why Lee County voters elected our sheriff. His new look and approach to serving the people of our county is only an extension of the type of person he is. Sheriff Carter has surrounded himself with people who care and support our county.
