Held annually in July, this time-honored tradition affords us the opportunity to recognize the heroic deeds of our local law enforcement and fire-rescue workers.
The 2026 Public Safety Awards Breakfast will be held on June 25, 2026 at the Montgomery County Agricultural Fairgrounds. Tickets will be available starting in late April.
