Our speakers this month are Sheriff DeWees and Chief Spaulding.  

Sheriff DeWees is the 58th Sheriff of Carroll County and was recently elected as the president of the Maryland Sheriffs Association.  He is a retired captain with the Maryland State Police and has been policing Carroll County for more than 36 years.  He attended our very own South Carroll High School, Mount Saint Mary's University, Seton Hall University and beyond. He has served our community since 1991.

Chief Michael Spaulding of the Sykesville Police Department has a long career in law enforcement. He attended the University of Maryland, where he received a BA in Criminology and The Johns Hopkins University where he received a MS in Management. Chief Spaulding has served the state of Maryland and our community since 1987. 

Our sponsor this month is Target Community & Educational Services.  Target was founded in 1983 by a group of parents who wanted better services for their children with intellectual and developmental disabilities. In collaboration with Dr. Donald Rabush, professor Special Education at McDaniel College, a unique partnership was originated and has grown into what the agency is today.
