As Thanksgiving approaches, I am reminded of how fortunate I am to serve our community with such an outstanding group of people. The deputies and administrative support staff at the Tift County Sheriff's Office are dedicated, hard-working, and committed to serving our county's citizens. To show them that you value them as much as I do, I encourage you to give them a friendly smile or a kind word to let them know you appreciate them. I am truly fortunate to have them by my side.

I would especially like to extend my sincerest appreciation to the citizens of Tift County. Your efforts to enhance safety and cooperation with our office help make our County a great place to live and work. I am grateful for your assistance through the crime tips hotline, website, app and in person. I sincerely appreciate your commitment to the safety of our community.

I will continue to work with you to improve the quality of life for each resident we serve. The support you've shown the Sheriff's Office during 2024 has been overwhelming. I am very thankful.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Sheriff Gene Scarbrough
