Hamilton County, TN – On Thursday night, May 11th, Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office Corporal David Arnold, Deputy Greg Smith, and Public Information Officer, Matt Lea, visited with the boys of Cub Scout Troop #3019 in Lakesite to discuss safety and the importance of knowing what to do in an emergency.

During the presentation, Corporal Arnold showed the boys some of the various tools law enforcement officers use on a daily basis and discussed a variety of safety topics such as stranger danger, firearm safety, illegal drug use, and what constitutes an emergency. Several of the cub scouts had questions about law enforcement and what deputies do on a daily basis.

After the discussion, they each got a shiny Deputy Sheriff’s badge, coloring books with crayons, and then enjoyed getting their picture taken sitting in the back of a patrol unit.

Special thanks to Corporal David Arnold and Deputy Greg Smith for their support and for taking the time to visit with Cub Scout Troop #3019!
