Carson City Sheriff's Office Badge Pinning & Promotional Ceremony
Traditionally a Badge Pinning and Promotional Ceremony is conducted in a crowded room, filled with families, friends, and Sheriff’s Office staff, where everyone is given the opportunity to show support.
Under the very different circumstances and with consideration to the health and safety of Sheriff’s Office staff, families, and friends, limited attendance was permitted to the ceremony honoring Lieutenant Mays, Sergeant Tucker, and Deputy Robbins.
This recording presents Sheriff’s Office staff, families, friends and the online community the opportunity to celebrate: https://youtu.be/YZT4U0SMpZE.
