Each year, the American Legion uses the occasion to honor members of the local public safety community for their dedication and service to residents throughout Yates County.
During this year’s event, four members of the Yates County Sheriff’s Office were recognized for their work in the community. Those honored included Deputy Nick Fultz, Correction Officer James Palmer, E911 Dispatcher Lyndsay Crofoot, and Court Security Officer Jeremy Panzik. Sgt.
