You are cordially invited to join the Civic Club in welcoming our June 20th speaker, Sheriff Mark Amos, at our meeting being held in the Clubhouse Great Hall at 7pm. There will be plenty of time allotted for questions, so please bring yours!
Sheriff Amos, born and raised in the town of Orange, was graduated from Orange County High School in 1980. He has dedicated his life to serving the public, having been a member of the Orange Volunteer Fire Company since 1979. After honorably serving in the United States Air Force as a firefighter, he moved back to Orange and began working in the Orange County Sheriff’s Office in the mid 80’s as a patrol deputy.
Amos worked his way up the ranks to the position of Chief Deputy prior to being elected as our Sheriff in 2007. Mark is a lifetime member of the Orange Volunteer Fire Company, a member of American Legion Post 156, and is the current secretary for the Virginia Sheriff’s Institute.
Please plan to attend this informative presentation. You’ll learn a little more about how the Sheriff’s Office works with security, about crime in our area, and the jurisdiction the office has in our Lake of the Woods community. Hope to see you there!
