WHEREAS,
Nicole Ebbeskotte is a Deputy with the Cherokee County Sheriff´s

issues that relate to them; and
WHEREAS,
this outstanding citizen and public servant educates students on a variety of
vital topics, including stranger danger and safety programs; and

solved due to reading what kids are writing on the Internet; and

Information Officer four and a half years ago, but now there are approximately
