A special thank you to:
-Dan Tanner Contracting
-New England Foam and Coating
-VT Sign Factory
-Caledonia County Fair staff
-Justin Freeto
-Joe Buzzi
-All Around Power

You all helped tremendously to make this happen! Thank you! If you’re at the Fair, stop by and say Hi!

Exciting news!!!
Last year, while providing security at the Caledonia County Fair, I expressed my interest to Fair Staff about adding a permanent facility on the grounds. Today I am pleased to announce that Fair Staff approved and we are actively building a Caledonia County Sheriff’s Department facility!! Thanks to Dan Tanner Contracting and Fair Staff, our building will be up and operating prior to the start of this years Fair. This is another milestone our Department has successfully achieved!

(I will be sure to show the final product once it’s completed)

Good morning, I want to clarify our Department currently does NOT have an active contract with St. Johnsbury. There have been discussions and we are scheduled to have further discussions but we have not been hired or contracted to provide services at this time. I have notified WCAX with this information. Thank you.

Today Deputy Bobbie Roy had the great privilege to visit the Peacham Children's Academy in Peacham vt. Deputy Roy went over bike safety and made sure their helmets properly fit them. Always a joy to visit and educate our local youth!!

Thank you to The Caledonian-Record for publishing this event. We were proud to honor James and his family.

ST. JOHNSBURY — The call number 111 forever belongs to former Caledonia County Sheriff James Hemond as far as the current sheriff is concerned.
