Sheriff Dennee is very excited to announce that again this summer the Forest County Jail's "Inmate Work Crew" will be removing trash from the Forest County ditches. Sheriff Dennee believes it will not only save taxpayer dollars, but also give the inmates incentive to behave while in jail and to work, hopefully strengthening a desire to contribute more positively in society.

The Forest Co. Sheriff's Office will be hosting a K-9 Fundraiser.
