COME SEE US! APRIL 28, 2024
3:00pm – 5:00pm

Getting ready to graduate high school and thinking about a career in law enforcement, then come see us. Looking at completing your Criminal Justice Degree, then come see us! This will be a hands-on experience. We will talk to you about your career goals and possibly how to get your education paid for.

Are you at least 20 years old and interested in starting a career in law enforcement right now? Come see us! We will have a meet and greet at the Emergency Management building located at 3169 NC 8 Highway S, Walnut Cove, NC 27052.

On April 28, 2024, at 3pm, we will host a job fair for the Sheriff’s Office. We will be speaking with those that are interested in a position in our detention facility, patrol division, or court services. On hand for the presentation will be Chief Deputy Eric Cone, along with some of Sheriff Lemons administrative staff and officers. At the event, those interested in employment with the Sheriff’s Office will have a chance to ask questions about the operations and see pictures of the detention facility. For more information on what is needed to apply, please visit our web site at https://www.co.stokes.nc.us/depart.../employment_sheriff.php.

Are you looking for a paid sponsorship for Basic Law Enforcement Training (BLET)? We are able to sponsor, pay, and send to BLET a cadet in the Fall of 2024. To be considered for a paid sponsorship, we require you to live in the county and follow the guidelines set out for the program. We look first at those that are currently working for the Sheriff’s Office and then to those that are in the community. Working in the detention center gets you great experience to prepare you for your future and teaches you a lot of the skills you will need to be successful as a deputy sheriff.
