Minden, Nevada- The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office is asking for the public’s participation in their new “Share a Wave” campaign. DCSO understands the public’s concern and general feeling of uncertainty during these times, and while there is a lot of normalcy that is on hold and daily activities/events are cancelled, DCSO wants to join in on the ‘What’s Not Cancelled’ conversation in Douglas County.
“We are still encouraging people to follow the governor’s directives, but we understand that many people are falling on hard times right now,” said Sheriff Dan Coverley. “We want to extend a wave to let people know that we are all in this together, and keeping you all safe is not cancelled.”
Waving at each other is not cancelled. The Sheriff’s Office is asking you to wave at them and they will wave back. It’s an easy way to lift others up during COVID-19. This is one friendly action we can still do to show people that they care for one another- while being safely distanced.
COVID-19 doesn’t change the mission of the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office. They will continue to remain diligent in their efforts to serve the community while also keeping residents safe.
When you see a DCSO deputy, car, or employee wave at them, and they will smile and wave back.
Send a photo or video using the hashtags #ShareAWave and #DCSO to the Douglas County Facebook account to be showcased on the page.
“Douglas County has shown resiliency through times of uncertainty before and we hope that this small gesture will be a signal that although we are alone we are together,” said Coverley.
