Today, Charles Hammond Lodge #99 joins in observing Peace Officers Memorial Day-a solemn day dedicated to honoring the law enforcement officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.

We remember those who gave their lives protecting others, and we stand with their families, friends, and fellow officers who carry their legacy forward. Their courage, service, and sacrifice will never be forgotten.

We also recognize the men and women who continue to serve with honor each day. Your commitment to protecting our community is deeply appreciated.

Please take a moment today to reflect and remember those who gave everything.

Charles Hammond Lodge #99 is honored to support those that are willing to pin on the badge daily to protect our communities, knowing the dangers they will be facing.

Thank you to the amazing work our Brothers and Sisters are doing daily behind the walls.

This week honors National Correctional Officers Week. Former President Ronald Reagan established this week on May 5, 1984. He saw the need to create a week for correctional officers to thank them for their services and celebrate their contributions to society.
Thank you, Corrections Officers!
