Today,
the
Bay County Chamber of Commerce's Leadership Bay Class of 2011-2012 presented the
Bay County Board of Commissioners with a check for $7,253 for the Law
Enforcement Memorial. The memorial is located at the Bay County Government
Complex on 840 West 11th Street.
The
balance of the funds, raised by the 2011-2012 Leadership Bay class, will go to
underwrite expenses to be incurred by the county for the memorial. Over $50,000
in local funds were raised to help honor fallen officers. The memorial was
dedicated in December 2012.
