Serving with Purpose | Louis Bryant Chapter Gives Back 🖤💙

This Thanksgiving season, our Louis Bryant Chapter of the National Black State Troopers Coalition stood tall in service—distributing turkeys and food to families across Arkansas. With hearts full of gratitude and hands ready to serve, our Arkansas State Police troopers honored the legacy of unity, compassion, and commitment to those we are sworn to protect.

From patrol to pantry, we remain dedicated to uplifting our neighbors—not just in times of need, but in every season of life.

Most would agree that our 40th anniversary symbolizes love, passion, and qualities that reflect the endurance and depth of the National Black State Troopers Coalition’s 40-year journey toward networking, training, community service, and unity. This year’s conference was a true tribute to the fire that continues to burn brightly after four decades!

We extend our gratitude to President Chrystal Carter-Savage (MD) and the members of our Board of Directors: VP Rickey Hargis (DE), Secretary Valerie Glesco (TX), Treasurer Matin Dunlap (MD), Financial Secretary Duane Burton (CO), and Palimantrain Cedric Rembert (WI). Your dedication and service to our membership are deeply appreciated.

To our host and conference honoree, Stacy Forest (GA), and the men and women of the Georgia State Patrol, your southern hospitality has once again exceeded our expectations.

We also want to thank our sponsors, The Corbett Group, Saundra Davis Law Firm PC, and Roy B. Robinson III. We are truly grateful for your support.

To our dear spouses, cherished guests, friends, and family who joined us, your presence inspires us and encourages us to strive for excellence. We sincerely appreciate your support and love.

Additionally, we would like to express our heartfelt thanks to our guest speakers and presenters for sharing their knowledge and experiences with us.

We look forward to seeing you in Albany, New York, in 2026, and in Little Rock, Arkansas, in 2027.

NBSTC membership, meet me at the throne of grace and mercy as we pray for TFC. Dennis Rickey of SCHP.

This is Trooper First Class Dennis Ricks.

Since 2023, he’s served with the South Carolina Highway Patrol, protecting Calhoun and Orangeburg counties as part of Troop 7, Post B.

Early Sunday morning, officials say he was struck by a vehicle during a traffic stop on I-26. He remains in critical condition, fighting for his life.

His wife is asking the community, “Please pray for Dennis.”

A recovery fund has been set up to help support him and his family during this difficult time.
