A sincere thank you to the Cabela's management team, GM Bryan Smith and AGM Jordan Jordan, at the Hamilton Town Center store for their generous donation of life vests and bottled water to Hamilton County Emergency Management. Your donation helped provide critical resources while helping EMA not incur any costs.

Some of the life vests were distributed to our patrol units working in areas affected by the flooding, helping keep our deputies safe as they continue serving and assisting our community.

We truly appreciate your generosity and support during this challenging time. Community partnerships like this make a difference when it matters most.
