Thank you for your continued support of our combined law enforcement team here in Teller County.
Today, we were honored to witness 16 new law enforcement officers, detectives, and 9-11 dispatch operators receive their credentials, certificates and badges and be sworn in by Sheriff Mikesell. I was honored to be able to say a few words on behalf of our residents. I assured them of our support and gratitude as they begin their careers in Teller County.
Looking into the eyes of their families, including children, wives, husbands, and parents, some who traveled from as far away as Minnesota, I was reminded that this is a family business and just how much is at stake when our law enforcement officers go on patrol, work our jail, or answer your 9-11 call at 1 am. They know that they have our support and gratitude. Congratulations to those of you who answered the call of service today, and God Speed and fair winds.
-Commissioner Dan Williams
